Please note that the registration is now closed. You are still welcome to join the event, we just can not guarantee bike rentals, spaces in workshops, or lunch to those who did not register.

We will focus on preparing Nira Rock Urban Wild for spring. This means improving trail drainage to deal with rainfall, cleaning up entrances and mowing areas, and enhancing rock climbing access. No experience necessary, Urban Wilds staff will supply all necessary tools and supplies.
