Rotary Trail Building

Volunteers Needed

Rotary Club of Steamboat Springs have joined with the Routt County Riders and the Bureau of Land Management to build a Multi-Use trail, which is located about six miles west of Steamboat Springs adjacent to Cow Creek just off County Road 33 (Twentymile Road). Rotary Trail begins at the Ridge Trail trailhead. 

Please help us finish this trail before July 31, 2011.  A five-mile “loop” is now under construction in the Special Recreation Management Area of Emerald Mountain.

This trail is being constructed 100% by Volunteer efforts and has been under construction since last summer.  We are looking for more volunteers from organizations such as yours and as friends of biking and recreation in Routt County to join in and help finish the trail for use by the end of July.  Any organizations that participate will be acknowledged in an ad in the Steamboat Today and at a Grand Opening Event hosted by Rotary Club of Steamboat Springs.

Work Schedule:

Wednesday;  10am - 3:00pm
Thursday:  Noon - 5:00pm
Friday:  10am - 3pm
Saturday:  10am - 2:00pm
Sunday:  Noon - 4:00pm

At these times, someone will be at the staging area, just above the parking lot and trailhead for the ridge trail, to meet volunteers and guide them to the work area. Show up at a time listed above and work as much or little as you like. Please bring your bike.

Many of your groups helped out last year and we are asking that you contact the appropriate and/or interested members in your Organizations again to coordinate work sessions as shown above.  If nothing else it is a great opportunity to get outside and even bring your bike to get a workout and learn about trail building with a fun group of people.  “Like” the Facebook Cow Creek – Rotary Trail wall and please contact me (846-6807), Grant Fenton (846-1560), or Aryeh Copa (846-5363) for scheduling information and directions.

Thanks in Advance and go outside and play!
