**Next Training Session - Fruita Community Center (Peach Room), Nov 14th, 1pm. **
Hey Folks!
I want to quickly thank everyone who was able to come to our previous training sessions. We had a great first season (even if it was the last 2 months). The Forest Service, BLM, and State Parks are all thankful for the info we provided and are very excited to see more next season.
If you are unfamiliar with our program, it is very simple and straightforward. We would like YOU, the folks who use the OHV trails, to simply document and report any issues you come across. Any pictures, descriptions, or location information you collect can be logged into our online database. Takes about 5-10 minutes. That info gets passed to the trail managers within the agencies. We are essentially providing info as if they had crews out checking trails every week. This will allow them to correct and fix any small problems before they have a chance to grow to a point of endangering the trail.
Since we work within an understanding with the Forest Service, BLM, and State Parks our volunteers need to be "trained". These sessions are simply talking about how the program works, what to report and how to use our database. Takes just over an hour out of your day.
I hope that some of you will be able to make it on the 14th.
Thanks!!
