Hi Folks,
We have a trail work day Saturday 10/3. It was supposed to be at Ward Reservation in North Andover, but we have a hangup with conservation approval and material delivery. This should be all sorted out for another trail day scheduled for 10/18.
So we are switching to the planned work at Harold Parker State Forest along Field Pond. A bog bridge, a lot of cutback and a few short reroutes to higher ground along side the pond. Weather looks iffy, but this work is easily accessible and not a problem in the rain (if it doesn't happen to be sunny). Come on out and give yourself a shot at winning a Trek bike or 2 and get this trail prepared for the Wicked Ride of the East 10/25.
Description: Maintenance on Field Pond Trail aka “Chick Flick”
Parking / Directions: Meet at gravel lot on HP Rd. east of 125. Map (http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&ll=42.611137,-71.112748&spn=0.001465,0.002594&t=h&z=19&msid=106434047195178978165.0004712d2d5bef8263184)
Time: 8:30 AM with lunch and ride to follow, weather permitting

Heavy rain could force a cancellation. Call if questionable. But the show almost always goes on.
