Clean-up required after Helene

 

POLK COUNTY—In the aftermath of Tropical Storm Helene, Polk County Parks and Recreation needs trail volunteers to help clear the county’s trails. 

“All of our trails need some cleanup work,” Polk County Trails said in an email. “If you are willing to bring a bobcat or small tractor for debris removal, that is desperately needed.”

The group asks that anyone available at any point during the week of October 14 email organizers at recreation@polknc.org or leave a message at (828) 894-8199. 

Polk County Trails will coordinate with the maintenance department and reach out to potential volunteers.

“Thanks for all the help,” the email continued. “Our goal is to have our trails safe to open for everyone to enjoy.”
