Making Map Boxes


Richard and Jim work on a map box.
As the polar vortex or whatever took a little detour into Connecticut, members of the Trails Committee retreated to a relatively warm workshop to build a slew of cedar map boxes. By warm, I mean with three space heaters going, I think the temps eventually got up to maybe 50°.  It was a lot warmer than out on the trails, though!  The map boxes will be attached to the trail kiosks around town. The hard part will be keeping them stocked with maps.

Terry offers some friendly advice.
