Trail Construction Volunteer/Staff Training & Project Supervision
Our experience in training and supervising
volunteers and/or staff is extensive. Tony has developed a variety
of sustainable trail building and trail maintenance programs that are
managed by volunteers and or park
staff. Programs like the Boulder Regional Conservation Crewleader Program
(BRCC), developed in 1993, have trained hundreds of volunteers to assist
agencies in their trail management needs.
In past years on National Trails Day
Projects (the first Saturday of every June), Arrowhead Trails
staff have trained and supervised
over 500 volunteers for over 2500 hours of new trail construction.
During these projects almost four
miles of new trail was constructed and no injuries occurred,
except blisters and sore muscles. To get more information on
National Trails Day contact American Trails at 520-632-1140 or
visit their web site at AmericanTrails.org.
We have also supervised numerous Pay
Dirt Work Days. These volunteers are mountain bike racers
who receive points for their race standings in exchange for providing
trail maintenance/construction labor. To get more information
