Jane Daniels has applied for a grant for a Recreational Trails Program on behalf of friends. It requests about $11,000 in materials to build two bridges that cross two streams and gravel to fill in wet areas. The Friends will need to raise 20% of funds, which can be volunteer time. One bridge will be on a new trail the other bridge will be on ATV track. The 1.8 miles of trails will connect with Baldwin Road.
