(Focus on Marshfield) -The Marshfield Area Ski Touring Foundation is looking for the community’s help in rebuilding the trails at Marshfield School Forest after a year of heavy damage.MASTF is a nonprofit community organization that has worked closely with the Marshfield School District to develop and maintain the ski and winter bike/snowshoe trail system at the Marshfield School Forest. Used by the community year-round for hiking, mountain biking, winter biking, skiing, and snowshoeing, parts of the trails were damaged by last year’s logging project and severe storms that swept the region in July. To get them back into shape in time for winter use and continue constructing new trails, MASTF has started fundraising and will work to redevelop the trail system using professional resources.
For the first phase of development, it has set a fundraising goal of $18,000, each foot costing approximately $2.30. Donations toward the project can be made online at this link or with $5, $10, and $25 donation cards at The Sports Den located in downtown Marshfield. More information about MASTF and the Marshfield Mountain Bike Club can be found at their Facebook pages.
