Friends of military ridge trail

About Us

The Friends of the Military Ridge Trail, in existence since 1983, is a group of volunteers committed to enhancing and promoting this wonderful recreational opportunity. We work closely with Department of Natural Resources representatives and assist with trail maintenance, develop and improve the kiosks, signage, and trail facilities, fund raise, and develop and provide educational and cultural opportunities.

​Friends meet on the second Monday of each month. We welcome new members who are interested in the trail. Meeting locations can be found on our Events page.
