Adopt-A-Trail Program

Posted March 23, 2008 8:35 PM

The Adopt-A-Trail Program is a way for individuals and businesses to take leadership role in the maintenance of the trails in Sierra and Plumas Counties, through both a monetary and/or time commitment. Guidelines for this program are listed below, but can be flexible to accommodate all interested parties. Our goal is to involve people who are invested in these trail systems, through whatever creative means necessary. Some examples of other ways to contribute to this program include: donation of product for raffle, donation of vacation rentals to house volunteers, and donation of tools for trail work.

Adopt-A-Trail Guidelines

2-5 year commitment
monetary commitment based on trail & number of users ($1,ooo - $5,ooo)
