SUNNY BRAE – The City of Arcata, the Humboldt Trails Council’s Volunteer Trail Stewards and the American Hiking Society invite you to celebrate National Trails Day by helping to build the Arcata Ridge Trail’s Beith Creek multi-user loop trail in the Arcata Community Forest’s Sunny Brae Tract on Saturday, June 1 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Volunteers will meet near the corner of Margaret and Buttermilk lanes in Sunny Brae.
National Trails Day — the largest single-day trails and outdoor celebration in the country — consists of activities including hiking, biking, horseback riding, paddling, trail dedications, instructional workshops, park clean-ups, trail work projects and much more.
This year, volunteers at the trail building day can enter to win raffle prizes sponsored by the City of Arcata, Revolution Bicycle, Lifecycle, Pacific Outfitters, Adventure’s Edge, Humboldt Trails Council and the Humboldt Fish Action Council.
Gloves, tools, beverages and snacks will be provided and the Humboldt Fish Action Council will host a barbecue lunch after the work is done. Be sure to wear work clothes and closed-toe shoes or boots and to bring water and rain gear.
