The warm weather helped volunteers start cleaning the walking and bike
trails at Calhoun County Park Saturday. Diann Clothier said about a
dozen folks turned out with chain saws and equipment to start the
project.
The recent ice and snow storm brought down trees and limbs across the
trails.
"The crew attacked the trails with chain saws and were able to get about
half of it done," said Clothier. Most of Saturday's work focused on the
"Boy Scout" Trail, looping around the back of the park.
Another work day will be held this coming Saturday. "We really need
help. So if you have a little time bring your saw and equipment and give
us a hand," she said. Work usually starts about 8 a.m.
One of the big spring events at the park is the Appalachian Bike
Classic. This
year's race will be even more spectator friendly, due to the number of
fallen trees.
