Give Back To The Trails You Love!
Yavapai Trails Association has worked with Prescott National Forest to set up each 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month as a trail workday.
Prescott is home to over 400 miles of trails within 30 minutes of downtown. Trails on City of Prescott, Prescott National Forest, County, Bureau of Land Management, and private lands make up the connectivity of our trail network.
Volunteers are the key to our organizational success. Working alongside trained crew leaders, volunteers will experience a sense of fulfillment as they participate in trail building and maintenance, while becoming stewards of our area lands. Volunteers have helped make Yavapai Trails Association the productive and successful organization it is today.
There are many ways to volunteer including at booths, happy hour, administration, board, and fund raising.
Thank you, volunteers!
At our work events you may enjoy routine brushing or trail building, and occasionally we’ll spend a Saturday doing something a bit more adventurous. We may hike out further or do a slightly different type of work. Emails will go out prior to each work event with all the details. Please read them carefully to decide which work events are a good fit for you.
You may sign up to receive work event emails by sending an email to: yta.benefit@gmail.com and requesting to be added to our email list for volunteer workers. You do not need to be a member to join us for work events, although we would appreciate it. Keep your eyes on our website and those emails! There may be opportunities for work every Saturday.
Thank you and Happy Trails!
Look for an email just before each scheduled workday to remind you to RSVP and announce the location. Thank you for all your volunteer hours.
*If you have them, please bring your own hard hat/bike helmet, gloves, and eye protection. If you don’t have them, we are able to provide those items. As always, make sure to wear long sleeve shirts, pants, closed-toe shoes, and bring snacks/water for the morning.
