Aiken County PRT will host a trail work party on Saturday, July 23. We'll provide some tools and training, but would encourage everyone to bring their own tools and personal care items as well.
We will have a couple of specific projects to complete that will involve rerouting some trail, including some new benchcut construction.
We'll start at 7 a.m. to try and avoid the hottest part of the day. We'll meet at the trailhead parking lot on the east side of the pond.
Call Vincent at Boyd Pond Park if you have any questions. 803-642-0314.

From Brad Barnes
There are two sections I want to address:
1) install a wooden plankway over a sandy climb at Clown Corner. We'll build most of the plankway prior to Saturday morning, so most of the work will involve final installation.
2) reroute a steep downhill section that is suffering from erosion. Most of this work can be accomplished with hand tools (rakes, shovels, hoes, tamps and McLeods). We have some, but not many.

Bring flat shovels, hard rakes or and tools you have to work the tread.
I have most of the SORBA Mcleods and pulaskis at my house. I will not make the workparty tomorrow, but if someone lives in the Augusta area, I can meet you somewhere tonight with some tools. Call me at 706-799-1531.
