>I have been a 4-H leader for 12 years and my club is always looking for
community projects. We are a horse oriented club, so trail clearing would be
right up our alley. In fact, whoever brought it up gave me a great idea. As
far as liability goes, we carry our own insurance through 4-H.  Of course,
you need to take reasonable care, I wouldn't give them a chainsaw, but
there's lots of other ways to clear or clean up a trail. I'm sure boy scouts
have to carry some type of insurance too.  Kathy in N.Y.
