Come join CFPA staff to help start the construction of a boardwalk at Giuffrida Park on the Mattabesett Trail in Meriden. Projects will include moving rock, setting gabions in place, and filling gabions with rock.
All tools provided. All skills welcome. Come prepared to get dirty and have fun. There's the chance we will be working on muddy terrain.
Alex, CFPA's Trails Coordinator, will meet you at the Giuffrida Park parking lot at 9:00 am. Directions to parking are here: Google Maps Link.
Please bring LOTS of water (even more than you think you'll need), snacks, bug spray, bug net, sunblock, lunch, rain gear, work gloves, backpack to carry your gear, and any personal items you need to spend a few hours outside. Be sure to wear long pants & sturdy closed-toe shoes, long sleeves are recommended. There is always the risk of poison ivy and ticks. No pets please.
Thanks for your support of CFPA and the Blue-Blazed Hiking Trails!
