β€’ Hand out water to participants
β€’ Collect trash to keep the trails clean
🚫 Zero tolerance for littering – as always, we intend to leave things better than we found them. We encourage everyone to pick up any trash you may see (even if it’s not ours) and place it in the bins at our Water/Trash Stations.
