The Horse-Shoe Trail STILL Needs YOU!

This month’s volunteer opportunity on the Horse-Shoe Trail has been rescheduled from March 1st to March 15th.

The Horse-Shoe Trail Conservancy is rerouting a small portion of the trail that happens to be on a part of the trail that the Pagoda Pacers have agreed to help maintain. They have requested that we provide some help with this effort. The planned date is March 15th, 2025, at 10 a.m. Parking is where the Horse-Shoe Trail crosses Gebhart School Road in Brecknock Twp.

The scope of work includes:

  • Move and place some big rocks to create an edge to what is sometimes a creek.
  • Build some bench-cut retainer wall on slope.
  • Bench-cut some of the slope into the retainer wall.
  • Place a few stepping stones to hop across in the wet times.
  • Should take no more than 2-3 hours.

We are looking for 3-5 people that don’t mind getting their hands dirty. The HST Conservancy will provide all the required tools. Gloves are recommended.
