“Working can be exhausting, but at the end of the day, the feeling that you actually accomplished something important to not only you, but an entire community, makes it totally worth it.” — Trail Crew Member

“When I leave April Hill at 5 o'clock, I'm excited for the challenges of tomorrow, fulfilled with the day I've completed, and more than proud to tell my peers I've found my calling. It feels good to go home knowing I've done my part, and helped others along the way. ” — Trail Crew Alum / Trail Crew Leader

“I looked at the 13 stone steps we had placed and felt immense accomplishment. Those stones I helped lay would be in that trail for hundreds of years, so I was leaving a part of myself behind on that trail.” — Trail Crew Member

“I learned that good work comes from a place of inner, instead of outer, motivation.” — Trail Crew Member
