Organize a recurring volunteer trail maintenance day at Stringer's Ridge, bringing together neighbors, trail runners, mountain bikers, and hikers to maintain and improve the preserve's trail network. Each event would focus on a specific section, with tasks like erosion repair, drainage clearing, and bench maintenance. Stringer's Ridge trails are loved hard — heavy use means constant maintenance needs. A regular volunteer maintenance program would keep trails in good condition while building a stewardship community that feels personal ownership of the preserve. Events would include tool training, shared lunch, and a brief ecology talk.
