Footzone Trailwork Nights: 1st Thursdays

Filed under: Announcements — seenyourcrash @ 10:40 am

Footzone is one of several shops in Bend that is helping support COTA efforts with the new Wangoa trail network. We’re hoping to make some real progress toward completing the 30 miles of trail already approved for construction. Footzone will be hosting the trailwork every 1st Thursday night every month all summer long! The more volunteers we get, the sooner we’ll be riding some awesome new trails right here in Bend!

Interested? Of course you are! Sign up by stopping in or calling (ph#541-317-3568) Footzone. We’ll meet at the store at 5:30 PM. We’ll meet there and carpool to the work site. COTA will supply the tools and the “expertise”. You just need to show up ready to help build trail.

You need to bring/wear:

long pants
boots or sturdy footwear

eye protection (riding glasses with light lenses)
gloves
hydration pack with water and a snack.

We’ll work till around 8 or 8:30 getting back into town around 8:30 to 9.

Please let us know you’re coming so we know whether we’re bringing tools for 5 or 50 volunteers.

I’m trying to contact Nate Christiansen.  I meet Nate a few weekends ago at the Bad Ass 50K.  He gave me his phone number so that we could connect for a run.  I’ve lost his phone number.  Does anyone know a contact number or an e-mail address. 

Thanks,

Trevor
