Creve Coeur Sunday Workday Recap

A big THANK YOU goes out to all the volunteers who showed up to help build, South County Cyclery for donating gift cards and swag to give out, the guys from Mesa coming out to help, and of course O'Fallon Brewery for supplying some liquid beverages that were enjoyed afterwards. A lot of benching was done and the trail built so far looks great.

We've got about 1/3 of the next section cut in, and once some chainsaw work gets done, will be ridable as an out and back. We'll post up later once it's done.
