Paul Bunyan Weekend is a smaller Work Weekend dedicated to tree removal in high usage areas. We split into crews on Saturday to:

  • Drop trees that are dead, dying or growing too close to structures

  • Split and stack firewood from the trees that are cut

  • Clear downed trees from trails

  • Restock firewood racks at campfire circles

  • Chip limbs and spread mulch

Spring and Fall Work Weekends may involve any number of projects, to include construction (sheds, docks, low ropes elements, bridges, facility updates), interior work (hanging drywall, painting, refinishing floors), trail maintenance, brush clearing, and basic repairs. It varies from season to season based upon current needs and crew size.
