The South Hills Friends of the Montour Trail monthly work parties are held on the 1st Saturday of each month, meeting at the South Park waste water treatment plant (trail MP 37.8, Piney Fork Road) at 9 a.m. The next two work parties will be on December 2 and January 6, 2018 (weather permitting). We will be looking for volunteers to install replacement fence at the Triphammer West Parking area. Possible jobs are installation of direction sign frames (post hole digging) and tree removal (chainsaws).

Volunteers placed approximately 30 truckloads of stone purchased by the MTC using a donated excavator and skid loader.
