January 13 Work Session CANCELED CANCELED CANCELED. Stay home and be warm. We will work on the trails that radiate from Halff Park some other time.
This area has the biggest trees and is the most wild. You might be lopping back overgrowth, toting off downed tree limbs, weed-whacking back grasses from the trail. Of course picking up any trash you might see.
We break into teams and each team has a knowledgeable volunteer, so you know exactly what to do.
For last-minute information, especially if the weather is questionable, check our website or Facebook page for updates, including dates and locations which may change because of conditions. We don’t want anyone working in the forest or on the prairie if there is a chance of lightning strikes.

- BRING WATER and insect repellant.
- Close-toed shoes are mandatory. Heavy work gloves, long pants, and protective eyewear are recommended for your protection from poison ivy and thorns.
