We need help!!

Here are a couple of opportunities to 'give back' and contribute to keeping our crawl course maintained and updated.

We're looking for two volunteers to lead two teams.

Each 'leader' will form their team with volunteers.

Project 1 - remove the wood material in the southwest corner of the crawl course. Build a new crawl feature with rock, concrete, blocks, bricks, or any combination of non-degradeable material. Take a look at Exocaged videos on Youtube for some examples.

Project 2 - spread approximately 2" - 3" of grade 8 or CA6 around the obstacles (turtle rocks) on the west side of the crawl course. We'll have 8 - 10 tons of material brought in to spread around obstacles. This will provide a much safer surface to stand on and slow down the errosion we're experiencing.

Please send a message to the club org box [email protected] or respond here and we'll get back to you.

----- THANK YOU!!! -----
