As part of the Adopt a Trail program, a couple of family-oriented work days have been offered this summer, and help to make improvements to the nature trails in the Smokies. The workdays were designed with kids in mind. The definition of family is broad - it could be a parent with children, two or more siblings, or any other combination of people who are members of a "family".
The final workday will be held on Saturday, September 8th on the Pine Oak Nature Trail, on the Tennessee side of the park. This workday is being supported through a National Park Foundation grant and will include free t-shirts and water bottles for all those who participate!!
The event lasts from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. To RSVP to participate or for specific details, contact Christine Hoyer at 828-497-1949.
