GILFORD — On United Way’s Day of Caring, a new ramp was added to the Wetlands Walk’s boardwalk. People pushing jogging strollers should go to the second entrance off of Gunstock’s Brook Run trail if coming from the small parking lot on the right just after leaving Rt. 11-A.
Volunteers built the ramp, removed rocks from the path and relocated it a bit for easier access. That day another bike loop was installed and easy basic maintenance done. The boardwalk’s care relies on volunteers, donations and grants.
To view the area go to gunstock.com go to “Community,” then “Overview” and scroll to the section for Belknap County Conservation District. There is a map and board donation information on the website.
The Wetlands Walk welcomes other donations, sent to BCCD, 64 Court St, Laconia, NH 03246. If you are interested in volunteering, contact Jan at bccdvolunteer@gmail.com. BCCD thanks Gilford Home Center’s for their help and Gunstock for the posting web info and help with beaver dam management.
