Hello Tom I am hosting the event with the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics. Last May I went and attended their Master Educator Course. I am hoping to start having more events and Leave No Trace Trainer Courses. I have invited several people the HHC, Scouts, a couple local high schools that require service time. I am a Scouter also. I am hoping for a good turn out from my scouting friends.
I am working on getting lunch donated and door prizes.

To update the Community Day is still a go. The Leave No Trace Center contacted the Keen Footwear Sales Rep and he is going to come. When I talked to him he said he would have some drawings.
I have also changed the Shelter because I don't think the Wall Shelter will have enough parking. We are going to meet at the Bryants Creek Shelter.
How to see you there.

Hey, K --
I'll be bringing some trail tools along with me, BTW, just in case. (Heh! The HHC used to have a motto, "There's no such thing as a trail that couldn't stand a little improving." Just remembered that.)
See you in the mornin'. TPosted March 30 at 4:14 PM -

tom mcginnisCheerleader BoyIt's so great to have the opportunity to pay a little back, via trail service, to the resource we so often say we "love".
Kevin, is the "we" the Boy Scouts? HHC?
