Trail-building day at Hampton Hills Metro Park on Sat. Nov. 1

There was much excitement when Summit Metro Parks announced over a year ago that they will be building a mountain bike trail in the Hampton Hills Metro Park. Unfortunately, heavy storms this past spring caused much damage in this park and other nearby Metro Parks, and the mountain bike trail was delayed as the organization had to re-direct their efforts to address the damage.

The mountain-bike trail-building is back on track, though, and there is a work day open to the public coming soon:

When: Saturday, November 1, 2014, 8:00am - 3:00pm
Where: Meet at the gate at the intersection of Hardy Road and Theiss Road.

If you have trail-building tools, feel free to bring them, but make sure they are marked to avoid them getting lost. Gloves are also recommended.

You do not need to be registered as a Summit Metro Parks volunteer to join in and help on this day, but you will need to sign a waiver when you arrive.
