As we head into 2019 with a full schedule of Trail Academies and Shore Corps dates set for the Spring, here’s a quick look at what we accomplished in 2018: a 40% increase in Race Face Shore Corps graduates, the addition of a new Academy course on Trail Design & Corners, and together we contributed over 3000 volunteer hours to looking after the trails!

Here’s a few highlights in photos…

Thank you to all who attended the Trail Academy in 2018; our power is in our community. We look forward to seeing you on the trails this year!
