They patrol the trail on bicycle or foot a t least twice a month\, April through October\, in all five counties answe ring visitors’ questions and reporting back about fallen trees\, erosion \, and trail maintenance issues. This training workshop will give interest ed volunteers the tools they need to become Formal Trail Patrollers. Vis it the Trail Patrol webpage for more information: https://delawareandlehi gh.org/volunteer/trail-patrol/.\n\nAdopt-A-Section of D&\;L Trail: This program is an off-shoot of the D&\;L Trail Tenders Program. Previously \, the D&\;L trained “Chapters” to run their own clean-up events\; some groups are still active\, while much of the D&\;L Trail needs more volunteer maintenance. Adopt-A-Section of D&\;L Trail will be a new pr ogram where families\, organizations\, and businesses will volunteer to st eward a section of trail (as defined by our Interactive Map from trailhead to trailhead) and maintain it through the year. Activities will include s ign cleaning\, litter removal\, brush removal\, and other “light” task s.\n\nSeptember Trail Patrol Summer Training Event Agenda\n\n 6:00 PM – 6:30 PM: Registration and Snacks\n 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM: D&\;L Trail P atrol Presentation\n 7:30 PM – 8 PM: D&\;L Trail Patrol Mobile Sessi on (identifying trail conditions and issues)\n\nSept Adopt-A-Section of D& amp\;L Trail Summer Training Event\n\n 6:00 PM – 6:30 PM:  Registrati on and Snacks\n 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM: Adopt-A-Section of D&\;L Trail P resentation\n 7:30 PM – 8 PM: Adopt-A-Section of D&\;L Trail Mobile Session (sign cleaning\, safety\, brush clearing)\n\n\n\n\nWhat will be p rovided by the D&\;L? \n\n Pizza\n Coffee or Tea\n Light Snacks\n D&\;L Trail First Aid Kits\n Trail Patrol Vests (Trail Patrol Only)\n Sign Cleaning Kits (Adopt-A-Section of D&\;L Trail Only)\n\n\n\n\nWhat do I need to bring? \n\n A water bottle\n Pen &\; paper for notes\n Appropriate footwear for walking\n Rain or Shine\, plan your outfit app ropriately\n\n\n\nTo register for either event\, please fill out the form below\, or directly contact trail@delawareandlehigh.org or trailsdirect or@delawareandlehigh.org.
