National Public Lands Day Event At Overland Trail

Our public lands are simply that... our lands. That is why the Bureau of Land Management Rock Springs office is inviting everyone to come out to the Overland Trail interpretive site on September 24th to do some much needed work as part of National Public Lands Day. Shelley Gregory with the BLM says the day is a growing opportunity for volunteerism.






Work will include installing trail markers, removing litter and completing a walkway. From 1862 to 1868, the trail was the only emigrant route allowed by the Government. Gregory says this is your opportunity to help preserve that history for generations to come. Wear proper work attire, closed toe shoes and safety glasses. The event will take place from 9 Am to Noon. Overland Trail is located on the Reagan Avenue side of Sage Elementary School in Rock Springs.
