Friends of the Trail Meeting 11-5-09
10-30-09
HELLO EVERYONE!
There seems to be a lot going on with the trails, so we’ll have a meeting Thursday, November 5th, 7:00 PM at 1609 NW Euclid.
You may have seen the article in the Constitution on the 23rd concerning the Bicycle and Walking Path, from Cache to the Wildlife Refuge. The report from Paul Fisher and others involved was that the project should be ready for bidding early in 2010.
Jeff Rupert, Manager of the Wildlife Refuge will be at our meeting to talk about the connecting path that will run through the Refuge. I will contact the officials at Medicine Park to see if they have done any more work on their plan to connect to the Refuge.
Also Shane Dunlevy from Ft Sill’s MWR will be ar our meeting to talk about Ft Sill Trails and events.
The City of Lawton is also nearing the contract letting on our City bike path and will have a representative from the Planning Department to talk about this.
Dr Ben Cooper recently received good news about a grant to the Fit Kids Organization which could effect many of our local programs. He will be present to explain the amount and scope of the grant.
We hope to have speakers on the Safe Routes to School program.
It is also time to start to work on the Tour of the Wichitas..so come and give us your input. The Trails belong to everyone!
Thanks,
Lon Parks
