Save Our Trails
Our trails are in danger… serious danger. Under the currently proposed transportation legislation, nearly all funding for trails will be completely wiped out. So Rails to Trails Conservancy and other trail groups are making valiant efforts to support two amendments that will reinstate most trail funding.

Please support trails by visiting the following website, then sending an email to your congress members. It’s fast, it’s easy, but most of all, it’s vital. This is not just a “cry wolf” type of plea. We could really lose many trails and forestall the development of new trails. Please get involved and let your voice be heard.

Thank you for your support on this important issue, Barry and thanks for spreading the word. The last vote on this legislation was extremely close. If enough of us get involved, I think we will make a difference.
Trails of all sizes and shapes are extremely important. They are the preferred recreation choice for millions of people in this nation, and millions more globally. I will be posting this as well. Thanks for helping to get the word out Kevin.
