Deck the Trails

This holiday season join The Amherst Parks & Recreation Department and The Amherst Conservation Commission and help us decorate trees on the Joe English Reservation. 

Starting November 29th, find a tree along a Joe English Reservation trail and decorate it however you'd like. Simple or speculator, we'll leave the decorating to you!  Please take a selfie with your tree and send along with location of tree to cdutremble@amherstnh.gov and we will post to our PMEC Facebook page. 

Individuals, families or groups are then invited to go out and find the decorated trees throughout the reservation.   Let's see how many trees we can decorate and how festive we can make the trails of Joe English!

* Please Note: Although edible decorations are encouraged, anything an animal can eat they will eat in 24 hours... so be aware that your decorations might not last long. 

* Please Note: Participants are responsible for finding the right tree, decorating the tree and taking decorations down by Tuesday, January 2nd.

Amherst Rec and ACC is not responsible for any lost or stolen decorations.
All decorations must be taken down by January 2, 2023. After that date all decorations will be removed.
If using wire hangers wrap them around the branch so the wind or snowstorms do not blow them off.

Bring a small ladder or step stool
Wheelbarrow can hold a lot of stuff and best way to get things in and out.
