Ashley Community Forest Board schedules Trail Day to finish northern trail and map routes
Summary
The Ashley Community Forest Board agreed June 11 to schedule a Trail Day to complete flagging and construction of a northern trail scouted May 9, 2026; members also plan to locate an entrance sign, inspect meadow stumps, and involve the community in trail naming.
The Ashley Community Forest Board on June 11 agreed to hold another Trail Day to finish work on a northern trail scouted on May 9, 2026 and to make decisions about signage and meadow stump remediation. Margaret Romney will send a Doodle poll to determine volunteers' availability; the board emphasized building the trail, producing a map, and then formalizing trail names.
Board members outlined three immediate Trail Day objectives: finish flagging and building the northern trail, decide whether a "Welcome to the Ashley Community Forest" sign should be on the kiosk or closer to the Nutting Road entry, and inspect stumps in the Sharon meadow for possible grinding or removal (estimated at about $1,000). The minutes record that five people participated in the May 9 Trail Day (four board members and one member of the public), during which crews completed flagging and clearing in several areas and scouted the northern route.
