Join Richmond-MORE and REI on National Trails Day (Saturday, June 4th) for a Trail Work Event.

Good morning RaMORE Members,

I wanted to take a second to pass along some info about our partnership with REI & the James River Park System for National Trails Day on June 4th.

Please join Richmond-MORE and REI on Saturday June 4th at 9am in the Reedy Creek parking lot. Last year we rerouted a section of the Buttermilk trail. This involved cutting in about 300 feet of new trail and reclaiming about 250 feet of trail. This year we'll be doing some work in Forest Hill Park. Lunch will be provided for all volunteers as well as a REI OXT t-shirt.***

VORS series racers don't forget that you can earn series points for trail work!

***In order to get the REI OXT shirt you will need to register to volunteer with REI at www.rei.com/stores/127 or call their customer service number 804-360-1381. You don't need to register just to come out and help out but you must register if you want a free shirt.

We hope to see you there in support of National Trails Day.

Thank You,

Richmond MORE
