Thanks from Davis Mountains Preserve

Lynda,

You've been on my call list since last week but I've been out of the office all week and am about to run out the door again. Thanks so much for making the trip out. Please pass our thanks on to all the CTTT who made the trip out. You guys did an awesome job out here! We'd love to have you out again.

I don't know what y'alls schedule is for the summer and fall but I'd like to have y'all out again to do some more work on the Limpia Chute. Let me know if this will work and we can talk about dates and schedules.

Thanks again for all y'alls help. I'm glad everybody could make the trip out.

About Us

About Us

We are a group of ready volunteers from the general public of Central Texas and beyond who donate our time and effort to build and maintain hike & bike trails, including ADA accessible trails.

Our mission is to relieve some of the burdens faced by government agencies who oversee our public parks, preserves and forests by working on approved trail construction and maintenance projects that enhance public access to and enjoyment of these special places.

We operate as a Texas 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation governed by a nine member board of directors who serve without pay.

Administrative fees, including cost of a quarterly newsletter, are covered by our annual membership dues of $25 ($40/family), which are tax-deductible. A small participation fee (usually $75 or less) is charged for most long-distance projects. No fee is charged for local projects.

Camping is our usual form of lodging but sometimes the host agency provides sleeping and cooking facilities. We provide all food for long-distance projects and meals are cooked by our volunteers.

We are a reputable, non-political organization with a proven track record and anyone *18 or older can participate. (*Younger participants must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.)

This is a great way to work on meaningful and rewarding projects in an outdoor setting and have a good time as well. What better way to give something back for all the joy that trails provide!
