Special
Events
Earth Day
Trail Mix participates in local celebration of Earth
Day (April 22), a
national observance that focuses attention on environmental
issues. Trail Mix co-sponsors an Earth Day Fair at the
Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center. Local organizations
with an environmental or outdoor focus set up booths
to explain to the public what they do and have to offer.
We need volunteers to help coordinate and lead the day’s
activities and to let the public know about Trail Mix
projects and mission.
National Trails Day
The first Saturday in June has been designated by the American
Hiking Society as National Trails Day. In past years,
Trail Mix has organized various activities – hikes, picnics,
trail dedication ceremonies, speakers – to celebrate.
We need volunteers to coordinate and lead these activities.
Annual meeting
Each November, Trail Mix holds its annual meeting to elect
new Board members, carry out business that requires affirmation
by the membership, present a summary of the year’s
projects, honor volunteers, and enjoy a presentation
pertaining to the Juneau trail system. Volunteers can
help organize this event or make a presentation.
Call Trail Mix (790-6406) or e-mail trailmix@alaska.com if you can volunteer to help with any of these special
events.
