Join RMFI for a day of giving back to one of Colorado Springs most treasured landscapes - the Garden of the Gods. We all love this amazing park that provides a spectacular backdrop for our city. However, with over 2 million visitors in a mere 1,300 acres, this park needs all hands on deck to keep its trails in good shape and to protect its sensitive ecosystem.
Led by trained RMFI staff and crew leaders, volunteers will complete trail maintenance and restoration projects. Workdays are ongoing, mostly on weekends, during the spring and fall seasons. This is moderate to strenuous work and requires some heavy lifting.
