Friends of the Western Greenway seventh work day of the trail season is Saturday, August 21!   This continues the work done over the last few months in the Shady's Pond Conservation area and last summer on the Western Greenway Trail building project. August 21 the work will be primarily trail clearing and building.  The plan for the Western Greenway Trail will be to connect to the Storer Conservation Land in the near future.

August 21 we will meet at the basketball court near the end of Brookway Road (GPS and online maps: 71 Brookway Road, Waltham). This is in the Waltham Housing Authority area and the entrance to Brookway Road is directly across from the Wal-Lex Shopping Center. Parking spaces are available next to the baskeball court. We will work 8:30 a.m.- 3:30 p.m. with partial day participation welcomed. Lunch will be served. Bring your own water bottle. We will offer unlimited refills. All tools and training will be provided. Be prepared to encounter poison ivy and mosquitoes on the trail. Work will proceed rain or shine.

If questions contact the Waltham Land Trust: 781-893-3355, info@walthamlandtrust.org.

Waltham Land Trust as a member of the Friends of the Western Greenway is cosponsoring this effort with participation by conservation groups from the neighboring communities of Lexington and Belmont.

The trail work is funded in part by a grant from the Foundation for MetroWest www.foundationformetrowest.org.
