Meetup is a online tool that facilitates people meeting in groups with common interests. Users enter their ZIP code or their city and the topic they want to meet about, and this website helps them arrange a place and time to meet. A local no-profit organization called Outside Las Vegas Foundation is heading up a meet up group to get residents together to walk on our local urban trails. To find out more information about this go to http://www.meetup.com/urban-trails/ For more information call 702-789-3355 or email volunteer@outsidelasvegas.org  Search the meet up site for other hiking and biking groups here in the valley.

Another great event being put on by Outside Las Vegas Foundation is a urban trails clean up volunteer day. On Feb 18th VOLUNTEERS are needed for the 1st Annual Community-wide City Trails Clean-Up Day. Help others discover beautiful Las Vegas Outdoors! VOLUNTEER TODAY @  ImpactLasVegas2012.org. This is great chance to get out on the trails and help keep our city beautiful.
