FALL RAIL TRAIL MAINTENANCE EVENT

Saturday, 11/23/24, 9 am – 12 pm

Volunteer trail workers wanted! 

The Walpole Trail Committee is holding a fall trail work event on the Cheshire Rail Trail at 9 am on Saturday, November 23.  Our focus will be on preventive maintenance for the drainage ditches and culverts that were restored during the 2023 rail trail improvement project.  We need volunteers for digging, raking and similar tasks to ensure that water flows smoothly through the drainage system and the trail remains dry.

We can also use volunteers to cut back vegetation along certain parts of the rail trail.  If you want to do this type of work, please say so when you sign up.

Please sign up for this rail trail work event no later than November 20 so that we can allocate the available volunteer workers to priority projects.  We will send out details about where to meet, what tools to bring and what projects will be tackled shortly before the November 23 event.

Let’s keep the rail trail in good shape so Walpole residents and visitors can continue to enjoy it. Please join us at the Walpole Trail Committee’s Fall Rail Trail Maintenance Event on Saturday, November 23!

To sign up or to get more information, please send an email to Wendy Grossman at walpoletrailhelpers@gmail.com.  Advance sign-up is required.
