Here in 3月quette County, we are fortunate to have an abundance of beautiful trails to play on year-round. 然而, these trails aren’t made possible without the hard work and dedication of a variety of local organizations and volunteer groups. How can you support those who make our trails so great you ask? Check out the ways listed below!
Volunteer
Trail systems take a lot of work to maintain, especially during the changing seasons. Our local trail organizations and land managers could use your help in maintaining them for users like yourself to enjoy. Keep an eye out for volunteer days or workshop events. Get out, get your hands dirty, and volunteer for a local org!
捐赠
If you’re visiting from out of town and have fun recreating 在这里, we encourage you to donate at trailhead kiosks or online for a “day use” cost. User donations go a long way and allow local organizations to sustain our recreation areas for years to come.
