Rivanna Trails Foundation

Trail maintenance work parties occur the second Saturday of each month from 9:00-12:00. 


Our gathering point for work parties is at the RTF equipment shed at 2030 Morton Drive, near the Meadowcreek Gardens and behind Bodo's and the English Inn (see map). We usually meet at the tool shed at 8:45 and carpool to the work site, but contact the work party leader if you want to go directly to the project or plan on being late.

We have tools, but bring shears or clippers if you have them. Everyone is welcome! We are happy to have groups participate in our work parties, but please contact us ahead of time so that we can plan accordingly.

General questions? Call Jeff Wilbur, 979-7524.


Upcoming events

    • 01 Jun 2013
    • 10:00 AM
    • Ragged Mountain Reservoir
    The RTF has been aiding the City's efforts to reroute the trails at the Ragged Mountain Reservoir that need to be moved because of the dam and reservoir expansion. We helped with a couple work days in 2012, and a final series is planned to finish the work in 2013. The goal is to complete the basic replacement of trails by Trails Day in June, leaving any fine tuning and follow-up improvements for next March when the area may re-open to the public. Contact Chris Gensic for more information.
     
    Saturday June 1st - National Trails Day: volunteer day to cut in new trails.
