The Tevis Trail Committee needs our help. They need more volunteers to help maintain the trail we all love. If any of you can help on any of the days listed below, please do so. If you are coming from a distance, and want to make a weekend of it, bring your horse and rig, and we will find a place for you while you work on the trail, and maybe even ride with you..
