“Volunteers don’t get paid,\u2026 they’re priceless.” -F. Magnette<\/p>\n
Seventeen volunteers turned out; 8 had and 2 earned their tartans. The 508 hrs on trails is 106% of the average of the last 5 years pre-covid: 476 hr. Admin hr is 146, outreach is 40 hr. Total CHVTC: 694 hr. Camp Coniston teen crew adds 112 hr, so total time is 806 hr.<\/p>\n
We volunteers may be priceless, but not worthless: DNCR 2020 report values our work @$26.58\/h, our 806 hr is worth $23,019.<\/p>\n
We patrolled 17 miles, cleaned 231 drains in 74 hr this Fall, set 31 rock steps\/pavers (rs), built 4 rock waterbars (rwb). Side ditches are incidental to drains. Scree and barricade are incidental to building fixtures.<\/p>\nOn Mt. Cardigan State Forest: 23 blowdowns CHVTC: 231 hr CHVTC volunteers were working for the crew and their mission at some time on at least 75 days this year. They carried on through drought, heat, smoke, humidity, downpours, that blarsted covid plague, and who knows what else. I must remark that part of working smarter not harder is to go out when conditions are as good as they are going to get, but still\u2026 Their devotion is truly outstanding, very much like that of other volunteers in so many lines of work who serve to make our lives better. It is a privilege to know them, and I am grateful to them all.
