First volunteer project of the season is tomorrow!

Volunteers open the Trail of the Shadows in 2007

Just a reminder: The first Mount Rainier National Park Associates trails work party for 2012 will be tomorrow, Saturday, April 28th. The project will be to work on the Trail of the Shadows at Longmire. In fact, I can see a large pile of gravel at the trailhead from my office window, and tomorrow's forecast looks perfect for a work party. It's probably a little late to join this month's group, but if you're in the park, stop by to say hi, cheer on the volunteers, and ask about participating in next month's project!

...Which will be (mark your calendars!) on May 19, location to be determined. Visit the Mount Rainier National Park Associates on their website to learn more and to sign up.

MRNPA is a community group that works with Mount Rainier National Park to do volunteer projects throughout the park throughout the summer. They've been working with us for years and are some of our most faithful volunteers. We're grateful for their efforts!
