Annual Milford Upper Charles Trail Fall Cleanup

When: Sat, Oct 26th 9am to noon (Rain Date: Sat, Nov 2nd 9am to noon)

Where: Check in at Fino Field, clean up will cover 5.6 miles of paved trail

Volunteers are asked to bring work gloves, rakes, brooms, or shovels & wheelbarrows & leaf blowers. The Friends of the Milford Upper Charles Trail have purchased 2 leaf blowers that will be used during the cleanup to clear leaves & pine needles. We will also provide disposable gloves, garbage bags & water, along with painting supplies & other assorted tools as available.

How can you help? 

Here are just some of the items on the to-do list:
· Spread mulch around memorial benches
· Prep the main trailheads for winter
· Clear out birdhouses along the trail
· Reseat some of the bird house poles
· Sweep/shovel dirt caused by erosion
· Eliminate graffiti – painting
· Trash pick-up as needed
