Scott's Gulf Wilderness staff needs your help! Join us as we work on sections of Virgin Fall main trail for routine trail maintenance. This could include: removing trees, roots, or rocks from the trail, adding water bars or cribbing in high erosion areas, or general trail improvement. This is a strenuous, labor intensive trail day so please plan accordingly. We honor all TN promise hours. If you need to complete community service or volunteer service hours to fulfill a requirement for scholarships, graduation, fraternity/sorority obligations, etc., this is a great opportunity to get those hours. Volunteers should plan on meeting Ranger Allen at the Virgin Falls Trailhead (2080 Scotts Gulf Road, Sparta, TN) at 10:00am. Ranger Allen will brief all volunteers on the location in the park where the work will take place and the project/task to be done. Please bring water, light lunch, and snacks with you and wear appropriate footwear/attire for the weather. If you have any questions about this volunteer work day, please feel free to reach out via email (codi.welch@tn.gov) or phone (931-401-2079). In case of extreme weather, we will cancel. However, we will work in light rain.
