Fat Ass and New Trails Planned for Neversink

Berks Nature and a few members from BAMBA joined us at a general membership meeting earlier this year and shared some information about a trail project that’s being discussed for the Neversink Mountain Preserve.

They are applying for public grants and trying to raise funds on their own to fund the project. At our January meeting, we will be voting on an amount to donate to the cause. Additionally, Brandon Beane is working with Berks Nature and a private landowner nearby to plan a January Fat Ass as a fundraiser.

Look for details for the Fat Ass on the Pagoda Pacer Facebook Discussion Page
