Volunteer service update: summarizing the first quarter of 2026

A huge THANK YOU to all of our volunteers for their dedication to the Buckeye Trail!

Here at the BTA, we are beyond grateful for every hour that someone chooses to spend building, maintaining, promoting, and preserving the Buckeye Trail. We want to take a moment to recognize those folks who go above and beyond.

Logging hours builds the Buckeye Trail’s future - it:

• Helps us qualify for grants and funding

• Allows us to report to key partners (like the U.S. Forest Service)

• Ensures you’re recognized for your service with awards and milestones
