Where You'll Be:
With forested foothills, picnic areas, and the popular Evergreen Lake House, Dedisse Park provides a variety of recreational opportunities right in the heart of Evergreen. The nearly 100-year-old park is managed by Denver Mountain Parks and connects visitors with Jefferson County's Alderfer - Three Sisters Park through a series of trails to the North. The exact meeting location will be shared via email at least 7 days prior to the project.
What You'll Do:
Help perform critical trail maintenance tasks on this weekday project! Tasks may include clearing the trail corridor by trimming overgrown vegetation to keep paths open and safe, maintaining drainage by removing debris and improving water flow to prevent erosion, and repairing the tread to smooth and reinforce the trail surface for a safer and more durable path. This is a great opportunity for new volunteers and anyone interested in learning more about trail restoration while enjoying a beautiful outdoor setting.
Why It Matters:
Volunteers will create a safer and more sustainable experience for hikers that will, in turn, protect the surrounding flora and fauna habitat in this deservedly popular natural space.
