Save the Dates for Trail Work Parties
One of our core missions when we formed as an organization was to provide trail runners with opportunities to help maintain the trails they love.
We have a number of dates saved for winter trail work parties in the 2023-2024 winter season.
SAVE THE DATES
December 9 - We’ve been too efficient and there’s no snow so this day is cancelled :(
December 30 - Snowshoe stomp
January 20 - Work party day
February 17 - Work party day
MATR members will be rewarded with UTofMB points for participating in trail work.
Trail work could include things like clearing dead-fall, trash clean-up, trimming around trail signage, installing signage, etc. We may also convert trail work party days in the winter into snowshoe stomp days as weather and conditions dictate.
Participants will be required to use hand tools like loppers and/or portable saws.
Participants should be able to carry a pack with their own water/snacks for the day as well as have the stamina to cover the distance travelled on foot for the trail work (5-15km).
All participants must complete a waiver and email it to info@matr.ca before joining us. The waiver only needs to be completed once per calendar year.
You can check our Event Calendar for up-to-date information on each trail work day as it becomes available.
