Organization (ECO), Phi Sigma Alpha and the Texas State Athletic Trainers
Association. Ben Taylor, a member of the San Marcos Greenbelt Alliance, led the
project. The volunteers trimmed trees along a future hiking trail, picked up
approximately 50 lbs. of trash and 30 lbs. of recyclables, and removed bastard
cabbage. After their hard work they relaxed and enjoyed a pizza lunch. Ben
invited the participants to future workdays at the site when the trails will be
developed in this beautiful natural area along the Blanco River.
