Take part in trail maintenance activities such as trimming, blazing, and general cleanup

This 448-acre preserve is home to unique Florida Scrub habitat, soon to be featured in the upcoming Hiking Spree. This is a wonderful opportunity to contribute to keeping our conservation areas accessible and beautiful, while spending time in nature with like-minded individuals.

Whether you're an experienced volunteer or new to the Trail CATS, your help is invaluable. Get outdoors, give back, and experience the satisfaction of preserving our natural environment.
