National Trails Day June 7

Looking for a free and healthy weekend activity? Well,Saturday is National Trails and there are more than 130 guided hikes and outings scheduled in Connecticut. Trail Days events in Connecticut are coordinated by the Connecticut Forest and Park Association (CFPA). Trails Day is a nationwide celebration that brings awareness to trails and the many joys and benefits they provide. Organizations participating in our state include the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC), the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), local and regional land trusts, town agencies,and outdoor-minded businesses. Brochures are available from the CFPA . You can download a complete Trails Day 2008 brochure. Connecticut is a beautiful state. Go out and enjoy it this weekend. Get in shape for the Goodwin hiking club outing later this month.
