Before a TM Day:

If possible, please check this page the day before the scheduled TM for notice of cancellation or postponement.

In the event of rain:

On TM Day, if it is already raining steadily at 8:00 am, the TM event is canceled for that day. If the rain is light or scattered, TM Day is still on. Please dress appropriately.

Typical TM Day Agenda:

Volunteers meet in the designated parking lot at 9:00 am. We will divide into work parties and hike (or bike) into the work areas. We usually finish up no later than 1:00 pm. Tasks will include: clearing overgrowth, removing small blowdowns, and litter collection (depending on turn-out).

Stuff to bring:

Signed Waivers (Mercer & JORBA once a year) work gloves, Bug spray, snacks/lunch, water. We will supply tools.

Additional/Postponed TM Days:

Additional TM Days will be scheduled as needed or if weather causes a postponement of a scheduled TM Day. Check here for updates.

Trail Maintenance Volunteers:

TM volunteers have performed trail maintenance at Mercer County Park (after having signed the waivers of liability). JORBA membership is strongly recommended if you wish to do TM at Mercer.
