Join us for a Community Dig Day at Van Dorn Park in Lincoln! This cherished local loop requires a few updates, and we hope everyone can come out and lend a hand. Expect some tread clean-up, berm work, and other corridor cleaning duties to be assigned. Look for the T.H.O.R. tent by the West (lower) Van Dorn Park parking lot. We'll get rolling with a meet & mingle and safety review at 8 AM—See you there!

What is a Community Dig Day? 

Community Dig Days are designed to bring our trail community together to get some trail work done and most importantly, have fun! Trails Have Our Respect staff will facilitate and guide trail work, which may include corridor clearing, enhancing trail tread, erosion control, and creating rolling grade dips. Our trail day builder(s) will explain what to do and the work.

Dig Days typically run for 2-4 hours. Every official trail day begins with a safety talk and an overview of the work planned for the day. Anyone and everyone is welcome to attend public trail days. Volunteers do not need any previous experience working on trails

What you should bring to trail work days: Closed-toe shoes, ideally work or hiking boots. Wear clothes appropriate for the weather, gloves, and gear for working outdoors: sunscreen, water, and a water container.

Parking & Meet up Location: 

• Parking available at the WEST (lower) parking area, the main parking area should be avoided and will be in use for a private non-THOR event at the events pavilion 

• City permit limits trail work to 20 spots. Any additional vehicles will need to park outside the park and ride or walk. 

• Look for the T.H.O.R. tent by the West (lower) Van Dorn Park parking lot. (Directions)
