WILSON CREEK KEEPERS
Wilson Creek Keepers is a grassroots effort to encourage volunteer participation in the monitoring and maintenance of the Wilson Creek area. A major part of this program is the KEEPERS PATROL. The Keepers Patrol is made up of a small group of volunteers who will act as a friendly patrol of ambassadors that welcomes and assists visitors of the Wilson Creek area (while hiking around and having fun). This program will be great for those of you who will be visiting the gorge this summer anyway or need a little motivation to do so...
If interested in more information on Wilson Creek Keepers, Big Sweeps and Adopt-A-Trail Programs please contact Eric Woolridge with the Caldwell County Planning Department..ewoolridge@caldwellcountync.org
