SUMMARY:Gold Mint Walkway Repair
DESCRIPTION:Volunteers will repair wooden pedestrian walkways on Gold Mint trail in Hatcher Pass State Park. They span over traditionally wet\, muddy areas on the trail and the boards are rotting away. The work site is approximately 1 – 1.5 miles from the trailhead. The trail is an easy trail but can be muddy and wet depending on the weather.\nNo experience needed. All tools and protective equipment will be provided. RSVP at: https://www.alaska-trails.org/…/gold-mint-walkway-repair \nAbout the event\nThe day will begin at the Gold Mint trailhead in Hatcher Pass State Park. Volunteers will hike from the trailhead to the worksite and repair wooden pedestrian walkways. The work site is approximately 1 – 1.5 miles from the trailhead. The trail is an easy trail but can be muddy and wet depending on the weather. \nWhat to bring: Rain gear\, sturdy work/hiking boots\, snacks\, water\, sunscreen\, long work pants\, and work gloves and safety glasses if you have them (if you don’t have gloves/safety glasses they will be provided for the day).  \nWhat NOT to bring: Alcohol\, drugs\, children\, pets\, and firearms. \nNotes: This event is open to volunteers age 12 and up.

But you’ll only have to guess at what fun we have in store this year. Though you can bet crowd favorites like doughnut race will definitely be on the list.\nWe will have a registration link opening a few weeks before the event but we want to give you all plenty of time to plan those spooktacular costumes.\nThis day of tricks and treats will be $50 per rider/horse combo.\nWe will have food for all the hungry gremlins and dinks for the abominable snowmen.\nIt’s bound to be a ghoulish good time. We hope to see you all at this years Creepin’ it Real playday!
