In addition, there are some spots on the nearby trail that could use more gravel. Please bring your own gloves. We will provide tools and hard hats. Dress for the weather and bring a lunch and drink. This is an outdoor event so we do not require masks, but you are welcome to wear one if you choose.

6th Annual CHC Rake-a-thon and Member Appreciation Celebration
Saturday November 12, 2022
The Cape Horn Conservancy is again sponsoring a 2022 Cape Horn Rake-A-Thon and a Member Appreciation celebration.
Fully vaccinated volunteers and members can sign up and join us for both or either the Rake-A-thon and Member Appreciation celebration on Saturday, November 12, 2022.
The Rake-A-thon will be held from 9:30 to noon, rain or shine. Removing leaves from the trail reduces trail maintenance and repairs since the trail will drain better without all of the soggy leaves! There is a limit of 45 participants. Volunteers should BYOR – (bring your own rakes),garden gloves and hard hat (if you have one). We've noted that metal garden rakes work better to remove the leaves. We will meet at the Road Closed Gate at the end of Strunk Road at 9:00 am.
The Member Appreciation celebration will follow the Rake-A-thon, starting at 12:30 pm at the American Legion on Washougal River Road. Join us for drinks, chili, cookies and other goodies – it's our way of thanking you for helping to keep the Cape Horn Trail one of the best maintained trails in the gorge and for all of your support. All Rake-A-thon participants and all CHC members are invited to the Member Appreciation celebration.
Driving directions will be provided to Strunk Road and the American Legion closer to the date.
Sign up for this easy, enjoyable trail party and/or Member Appreciation celebration by completing the short event sign-up form below. Please submit a separate form for each event so that we have a count of attendees.
