Itinerary:

Please join me for another AOC 'Adopt-A-Park' project at Vickery Creek. We'll be doing trail maintenance near the Oxbo Rd park entrance.  Dave Thomas, CRNRA Volunteer Coordinator will provide tools and gloves.

Work is moderate to heavy - repairing damage to our previous trail work.

We will meet at 9:30 AM at the Vickery Creek Trail Bridge on Oxbo Rd to sign NPS waivers.  See parking options below and allow 5 to 10 minutes to walk from either parking area.

Parking is available at the Oxbo Trail parking area (across from 148 Oxbo Rd). Walk East on the gravel path between Oxbo Rd and the creek until you reach the bridge.

Additional parking is available at Groveway Community Park @ 160 Frank Lewis Dr.  The park is 3/10ths of a mile from Oxbo Rd.  There is a sidewalk along Frank Lewis Drive for the walk to Oxbo Rd - the bridge is across the street.

Note: Restrooms are available at Groveway Community Park.
