Trail Adoption Program
Ready to make a difference?
Our Trail Adoption Program (TAP) invites volunteers and local organizations to give back to the trails, parks, and community by keeping trail corridors clear and clean, safe, and a great experience for all.
How It Works
Volunteering with the Trail Adoption Program is a fun and simple way to contribute to the trails and the community. Volunteers will have the opportunity to earn rewards based on their service hours while making a tangible impact.
Easy Steps
Join TAP by signing up online or in person, attend a brief training on trail maintenance and safety meeting. Sign the volunteer waiver, choose to join scheduled group Trail Days or maintain your selected trail on your own time, and log your hours to earn rewards. Capture and share your successes (High-fives!) along the way!

Team Building
When your organization adopts a trail through TAP, you help preserve and improve local outdoor spaces. This program allows your team to take care of a trail, making sure it stays safe, enjoyable, and sustainable. By performing regular maintenance and providing educational outreach, your involvement supports the continued use of these valuable community spaces. As a recognized trail supporter, your organization will be acknowledged for its efforts to keep our trails healthy for future generations.
