TRAIL MATERIAL REGISTRY
Not all donations require the opening of a wallet or time spent. Have you thought about how someone can help in another way? There is a wealth of old materials hidden away in nooks and crannies around their homes just waiting for an opportunity to find a use somewhere, whether it's a couple of 2x4 and 2x6’s, or an old pail of nails and a post left over from some old fencing project, some rebar off cuts or a couple of lag bolts and washers. It's all the stuff needed to build a bridge, corral, kiosk or whatever your project needs.
How about creating a Materials Registry for your project.
Example Project: Bridge for Surprise Trail at Paradise Meadows.

Above we have provided the rough cut lengths of almost everything needed, all donations are welcome providing they are in a useable state (no rust or rot please). You may want to post this on your Chapter Facebook page or print off your registry list and take to your local building supply outlets or even construction sites.
