Thanks Troop #700 Trailblazers!

Last Saturday, Grapevine’s Boy Scout Troop #700 came to work once again on the Silver Lake Nature Trail on The Vineyards Campground. It is a secluded 1,030 foot soft service pathway through one of the Corp of Engineers Environmentally Protected Areas on Grapevine Lake, and enjoyed by many of our campers and guests.

The trail winds through a lush, cross-timbers forest unique to the North Texas region, providing habitats for native wildlife and numerous species of beautiful birds. Many of the trees along the pathway have identification tags for nature lovers.

Troop #700 tent-camped the night before at Meadomere Park—one of our nearby sister Lake Parks—then rode their bicycles 10-miles over to The Vineyards Campground for their service project.

The scouts worked side-by-side most of all of the day, moving and raking mulch over the whole length of the nature trail. On behalf of our campers and The Vineyards staff – “Thanks so much for your hard work…our Trail has never looked better!”
