Van Dyke Preserve Workday

Thursday, July 10, 2025

9 AM - Noon

The bog boards at Van Dyke need some improvements, so we'll be spending the morning replacing boards and footers as needed to keep the trail elevated through low wet areas. Work will involve carrying in lumber, removing old boards and installing new ones using both hand tools and power tools. We will also be working on improving a drainage ditch and installing a couple water bars to divert water flow.
