Grab a shovel and blaze a new trail with the Loess Hills Nordic Ski Patrol on National Trails Day! Help finish the last of four new trails at Hitchcock Nature Center before they open to the public. This volunteer event is perfect for hardworking helpers who aren't afraid to get a little dirty while establishing a new trail and removing fencing on National Trails Day. Pre-registration is required and lunch will be provided following trail work. Please meet on the back patio of the Loess Hills Lodge near the Bluestem Room. Before registering, be sure to read our Activity Liability Waiver here. What to wear and bring: Long pants Closed-toe shoes Hat or head covering Work gloves Reusable water bottle (water refill stations will be available) Rules and considerations: Because of the intensity of this work, please do not bring children under 12 years old or dogs. Bring them back another day to blaze the trails you helped create! Park volunteers do not need to pay park entrance fees
