Montgomery Parks Offers Guidance on ‘Trail Etiquette’ - The MoCo Show (2024)

Pedestrians, equestrians, and cyclists share trails at Wheaton Regionaland other parks

“Some encounters on shared-use trails can be startling if you don’t expect them,” said Montgomery Parks Trail Planner Kyle Lukacs. “A person walking a dog may be surprised to see a horse on the trail. Or a mountain biker may not be on the lookout for a slower-moving pedestrian. Familiarizing yourself with these rules in advance takes the guess work out of using the trails safely.”In addition to looking out for each other, park visitors should be mindful of trail conditions. Trails should not be used in inclement weather, muddy conditions, or snow.

Montgomery Parks operates a rainout line that provides the latest information on trail conditions. The rainout line can be accessed on the trails operating status web page or by calling the Rainout phone line at (240) 270-0008 .

Montgomery Parks maintains more than 260 miles of trails, for a complete list visit the trails webpage.

Aaron Seyedian launched the home cleaning company Well-Paid Maids in June 2017 and, that August, began offering cleaning services around the D.C. area with his staff of three -- including himself.

At the time, he paid cleaners a living wage of $16 an hour, plus benefits.

Here's what he told The Washington Post in September 2017: "It's just immoral for people to have to panic every time the rent is due, to wonder how they're going to pay for their groceries, or whether they can buy their kid a pair of shoes."

Today, Well-Paid Maids has grown into a team of around 35 employees. Cleaners now get paid a starting wage of $24 an hour. Plus, they get benefits, like health, vision, dental and life insurance; 24 paid days off per year; 100% employer-paid commuting costs; and more.

Aaron and other Well-Paid Maids team members have also advocated for paid family and medical leave, higher minimum wages, and more.

This summer, help Well-Paid Maids celebrate seven years of creating change in a notoriously dirty industry.
