Don’t Forget to Stop by and Watch the New Babies up in the Rookery. Just north of the MSPCA road, there are a couple of viewing areas cleared right on the shore of the marsh. Bring your binoculars and your cameras.
When you are hiking keep an eye out for the MSPCA volunteers excercising the rescue dogs. You may find your next best friend!

Tim Vermette spent yesterday removing tires from the north end of the rail trail.
We are slowly getting all the OLD tires from the swampy areas around the MSPCA and the Bird Sanctuary.
Please email us with any new tire dumping sightings and if you happen to feel like doing a little tire wrangling in any area of the trail.
Just pull the tire to the shoulder of the trail and email us its location, and we will make it go away.

We will be cleaning tires from the hillside above the Spicket River on the South end of the Methuen Rail Trail.
From 8 am to 1 pm
Meetup at the Manchester St. Park on the Lawrence end of the trail.
Send an email to let us know if you want to volunteer!
Last Weekend we had some Boy Scouts from the Lowell/Dracut troop volunteer to rearrange some of our Rocks down at the depot. The goal is to get more and more of the granite slabs out of piles in and into other areas. In the end we should be able to start landscaping the area in front of the Depot and start picking curbing slabs for placement as seating in other areas of the Rail Trail.
Thanks to all that helped!
the Watch for Traffic Signs at Nevins Rd have been replaced.. The Stop Signs and crosswalk are up on Union St. And we are adding the safety features to the posts along the old Laidlaw property…soon some Yellow Rope will be added. Hopefully this will help trail users and automobiles stay safe. If folks have other suggestions please send them in to info@methuenrailtrail.org
Brought the kids out snow shoeing … Just a little deep but a great time.– Jim christie
