OT Trail Maintenence

Post by colt1911carry on Fri Sep 19, 2008 9:54 am

Its that time of year again. Time to do our part to help keep the trails running smoothly! I am heading out to my 1.4 mile section of the OT to do my part this afternoon and tomorrow. My section is mile marker 157.0 to 158.4 (including the Moonshine Shelter) outside of Jessieville, AR in Segement 9 of the trail.

If anyone is interested in joining me, give me a call on my cell. 901-326-8305 or 901-650-2378. I plan to leave Memphis at 1:00 this afternoon and head on.

Colt,

Good luck, should be a good weekend to do trail work. We probably won't start on ours till some time in Oct. We have a new section that will require quite a good bit of work. When we head out I will also make a call for volunteers here.
