Description

Join the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, Friends of the Rappahannock, and the Rappahannock Wildlife Refuge Friends on a trail workday in the lovely Rappahannock River Valley Wildlife Refuge. The Wellford tract fronts Little Carter’s Creek where bald eagles, herons, egrets and other wildlife abound.

This is a great opportunity to get outside, get active, and enjoy a great workout! While you’re not required to stay for the entire duration of the event, we kindly ask that everyone arrive at 10:00 AM to receive instructions and go over the work plan.

What to Expect:

  • Install a new sign to honor Libby Norris
  • Spread stone dust to cover bare spots
  • Replace a culvert, and trim briars back from the edge of the trail.
  • We’ll supply gloves, tools, and materials needed to complete the work—you bring muscle and enthusiasm!

Bring a lunch and a reusable water bottle. Wear closed-toe sturdy shoes that you don’t mind getting wet/muddy.

If you have questions, contact Ann Jurczyk, VA Urban Restoration Manager at ajurczyk@cbf.org or 804-258-1522.

This event is co-hosted by Friends of the Rappahannock and the Rappahannock Wildlife Refuge Friends.
