Orcas Trail Work Party

We feel it's very important that the races we direct give back to the community they take part in and to the trails they use. With that in mind we've organized a volunteer trail work party for Saturday January 31st on the trails at Moran State Park. Every year we've gone out before the race and helped to get the trails ready for the race and for the coming spring season. The work usally includes, brush clearing, removing blown down trees and digging water bars and other surface water management. Dress for the weather and for the work. We'll have work gloves and safety glasses but bring your own if you have them. And bring lunch, water and snacks-- we'll be working for about 6 hours. The park is providing lodging for those who are traveling to Orcas for the work party and would like to stay overnite.

Oh and folks attending the work party are automatically entered into the race for free even if the race is already full!
