Fort Cherry Friends



Our maintenance equipment is several years old, and we want to switch to battery-operated equipment



What is the Project: The maintenance equipment is several years old and prone to breakdown. The Fort Cherry Friends are adding solar power to the work trailer in 2026. By switching to battery-operated equipment, the cost of fuel, filters, and repairs will be eliminated. Additional benefits include: quieter operation, environmentally friendly, and no monthly electric bill.

What will the volunteers do: The volunteers will use new equipment to maintain the trail throughout the year
