Environmental Restoration Event - Colorado Springs, CO

Join us for a fun day of volunteering to celebrate Earth Month!

Planting Partner: Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado

Event Description:

Volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in trail restoration by closing social trails, broadcasting native seeds, mulching and constructing fences along the Gateway Trail and Cabin Canyon area. This project will improve wildlife habitats and protect natural resources. Garden of the Gods receives 4 million annual visitors and was recently ranked by TripAdvisor as the #9 attraction in the world. Also, this project will help protect against further fragmentation of the park's meadows and encourage park visitors to stay on designated trails.
