      <description>&lt;p data-path-to-node="4"&gt;&lt;img src="https://rta.trailsalliance.org/widget/resources/Pictures/DSCF4869.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-path-to-node="4"&gt;Join us for an exciting volunteer workday at &lt;strong data-path-to-node="4" data-index-in-node="103"&gt;Moore Creek Park&lt;/strong&gt; as we expand the trail network and create an awesome new riding and hiking experience!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-path-to-node="5"&gt;We are building two brand-new trails—a traverse trail and a connector trail—that will finally create a complete loop right off &lt;strong data-path-to-node="5" data-index-in-node="127"&gt;Dan’s Wild Ride!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-path-to-node="6"&gt;Whether you’re a seasoned trail builder or a first-timer looking to give back, we need your hands to make this loop a reality.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3 data-path-to-node="8"&gt;The Details&lt;/h3&gt;

      <title>Volunteer at the Moore Creek Grasshopper (September 20, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="https://rta.trailsalliance.org/widget/resources/Pictures/Moore%20Creek%20Hopper%202026%20banner.png" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Join Redwood Trails Alliance on &lt;strong&gt;Sunday, September 20&lt;/strong&gt;, and help make the Moore Creek Grasshopper an unforgettable day of riding in the Napa Valley!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We’re looking for volunteers to support the event in several roles:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aid station support&lt;/strong&gt; at PUC Forest, the top of Dan’s Wild Ride, and the Moore Creek Park parking lot&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Course marshals&lt;/strong&gt; at key intersections—some locations require hiking or biking to reach&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Morning setup&lt;/strong&gt; before riders arrive&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Afternoon breakdown&lt;/strong&gt; and cleanup after the event&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you can help for a few hours or spend the day with us, your support will keep riders safe, fueled, and on course while helping raise funds for more trails and better trails at Moore Creek Park.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Come be part of a fun day, support the local trail community, and experience the Moore Creek Grasshopper from behind the scenes!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Help us expand the trail network at &lt;strong&gt;Soda Springs Ranch Open Space Preserve&lt;/strong&gt;!&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;We’ll be working on a brand-new trail, focusing on &lt;strong&gt;dragging and finishing the tread and adding a gravel runout&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;No experience is necessary—our crew will provide instruction and guidance, along with all the tools you’ll need. Come spend a morning outside, get some dirt under your boots, and help build the future of trails in Sonoma County.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;RTA will provide:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul data-spread="false"&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Tools and trail-work instruction&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Snacks and refreshments&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Lunch&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Please bring:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul data-spread="false"&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Water you can carry with you&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Long-sleeved shirt&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Long pants&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Sturdy shoes or boots&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Work gloves, if you have them&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Let’s help expand the trails at Soda Springs on the 26th!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Come ready to work, learn something new, and leave a lasting mark on the park.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Plus, expect some special surprises along the way.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
