A reminder about chainsaw safety:

Bolton is unusual in that it allows some volunteers on the Trails Committee to use chainsaws on Town property. We have that privilege because those of us that have taken the safety class are trusted. At this time, these individuals are the only volunteers that are allowed to do this work and they undertake to follow safely guidelines and wear protective gear.
