Greetings,
A couple of quick news items this morning:
Friends Volunteer Work Day April 26 at 10 AM CDT
Members of the Friends of South Cumberland are invited to
gather April 26 at Grundy Forest (Fiery Gizzard
Trailhead) for the
organization’s first trail maintenance project in
partnership with the
Tennessee
Trails Association.
Volunteers will gather at 10 a.m. at the Grundy Forest
pavilion. Tools will be provided, but everyone is asked to
bring gloves and wear work clothes and boots or hiking
shoes. Each person should also bring a lunch and extra
water.
The day won’t be all work. There will be an opportunity for
some hiking. A program about wild turkeys will be followed
by a picnic supper at the pavilion sponsored by the Friends.
Park Ranger Anthony Jones will direct the project, which he
has divided into two parts, removing privet and clearing
rocks where the trail has eroded. He said the work will not
be strenuous.
Persons who plan to attend are asked to call
Latham Davis at
931-598-5101 or send an email to
lathamdavis@bellsouth.net.

We also have an
armchair wildflower tour online for those who like to
see the flowers this time of year but might not be able to
make it into Collins Gulf.
