Trail Adoption Plan - How it Works
TAP-How it Works
You will be partnered with a Trail Builder (TB) who will do an Assessment and create a Work Plan for your adopted trail. Your organization will work with the Trail Builder to schedule Trail Days throughout the year for a 12 month period. The amount of Trail Days is up to you. The minimum is 4 Trail Days per year (2 per six months). 12 is the maximum amount of volunteers per Trail Builder per Trail Day as this is the largest manageable number for one Trail Builder. Should you wish to have more volunteers from your organization on a particular trail day, arrangements can be made for an additional Trail Builder as needed.
The NSMBA will provide insurance for all volunteers and manage permits with the respective Land Managers. The NSMBA will supply all necessary tools and materials working in conjunction with the Trail Builder. The NSMBA will provide training and necessary certification for all Trail Builders. The NSMBA will work in collaboration with the Land Managers to create and ensure employed standards and best practices are environmentally conscientious and sustainable.
Utilize this opportunity to connect with the community and build spirit within your organization. Feel free to share your Adoption with a key partner to grow that relationship and share in the pride that comes with ownership.
