The Leopold bench is named after its creator, the "Father of Modern Conservation", Wisconsinite, Aldo Leopold. Join your neighbors in building a great trailside or fire ring bench where conversations, contemplations, observations or just a place to rest can occur. You will build one bench for yourself and build a second bench as a donation to the Door County Land Trust. Multiple pleasures gained in a short period of time for yourself and others! You will work in teams of two. Bring a sack lunch and any tools you may have such as: skill saw, drill, 5/16" and 3/4" bits, 7/8" and 1" speed bits, square, tape measure, pencil, socket set, quick grip-style clamps (minimum 2).
