About this event

  • 2 hours

This is one of two Sunday 10AM - 12PM volunteer events to maintain and refurbish the trails in Dobbs Ferry's Chauncey Park, which sits along the Sawmill River adjacent to the Chauncey Square shopping area and The Danforth apartment complex.

Volunteers will use shovels, wheelbarrows and rakes to spread fresh woodchips along the trailway, re-line the trail edges with fallen branches and re-mark the trail with fresh paint blazes. Volunteers will also weed the park's trailhead pollinator garden for the spring and plant additional native pollinator plants.

Volunteers should wear long pants and long sleeves, sturdy shoes, work gloves and bug spray. A limited number of shovels, rakes and wheelbarrows will be available, but if any volunteers can bring additional ones they would be very welcome!

There are separate EventBrite invitations for the two events.
