West Jersey Trail Crew

The Trail Conference trail crews are made up of volunteers dedicated to the construction and rehabilitation of foot trails in the Southern New York and Northern New Jersey area. Volunteers must become members of the Conference to participate in these projects. A one time "guest" participation is allowed.

All are welcomed; no previous trail work experience is necessary. Bring sturdy boots, work gloves, lunch and water. Tools and training are provided. If possible, please notify the leaders that you are coming, so they will know how many people to plan work for.

Leaders: David and Monica Day
Phone: (732) 937-9098
Email: westjerseycrew@trailstobuild.com

Fall 2008

 Bring your lunch, plenty of water, gloves and sturdy work shoes, and be prepared to get dirty.  All tools, materials and training will be provided.   Beginners are welcomed on all work trips.

All events begin at 9:00am.  Please phone or email the leaders for meeting location and driving directions.   There is usually a walk to the work site, so please be there on time (call the leaders’ cell phone if you are coming to an event and are running late).  Rain cancels – if in doubt, call the leaders between 6:00 and 6:30 that morning. 

Carpooling: If anyone is interested in carpooling (offering a ride or riding), please let the leaders know and we will try to arrange a shared ride. (Passengers please be prepared to contribute for gas.)
