Volunteer Trail Steward Program

As RRCT conserves more land in the watershed, dedicated volunteer presence on our preserves is more important than ever. Volunteer Trail Stewards have a rewarding role in which they become closely connected with a special place while acting as RRCT’s eyes, ears, and extra hands. Resources and more information here.
RRCT 400 Footer Club: Self-led trail challenge
RRCT 400 Footer Club is a self-led trail challenge. We’ve listed ten local conservation destinations each at an elevation near 400 feet above sea level. Complete them all, win a badge, and win membership in this growing club. Club members invest in cultures of responsible land stewardship, and inclusivity. More information: RRCT 400 Footer Club
