<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Proposed ground rules for trial period improvements to the trails in Orono Parks <br /> Volunteer service project for Student-Athletes, supervised by coaches and parents <br />o NICA recognizes, supports and encourages trail maintenance through their Teen Trail <br />Corps (which makes it a NICA insured activity) <br /> Speak with adjoining neighbors before any major improvements commence <br /> Primarily leaf blowing, raking, and removal or relocation of downfall <br /> No trees will be removed <br />o Brush clearing or minor branch trimming is okay <br />o Cutting or trimming of previously downfallen trees is okay <br /> Avoid sensitive areas for neighbors (i.e. stay well clear of Lydia’s electric fence and animals) <br /> No riding through obvious wet areas (i.e. spring streams or any low wet areas) <br /> Small bridges might be built to cross streams (i.e. Bederwood) if they provide improvements <br />to the park area. This might be accomplished with drainable rocks instead depending on <br />location and size of crossing <br /> Minor dirt moving where necessary <br />o to make small berms for safety around sharp turns <br />o small mounds to potentially ride up and over previously fallen trees <br />o appropriately angling of trail surface to promote proper drainage <br /> <br />
