Tannehill Expansion

If you didn’t make it to the meeting, the vote passed and we have purchased a mini skid steer to help us with building and maintenance at Tannehill and the other parks we service.  Nov 2 we have our first workday planned out there to begin clearing the corridor for phase 1 of the build.  We plan to build the first 3 phases of the expansion which would add about 8 miles of trail to Tannehill.  We are applying for grant funding to fund the final phase that would connect the trail system back into Farley Field.  Until we get that funding the loop can be closed by use of the access road next to the maintenance facility that leads back into the most recent Forever Wild Acquisition. We are currently looking for sponsorship and material donations to assist us in completing phase 1-3 of the build.  Sponsorship in the form of monetary donations, trail building equipment, bridge building materials, and signage are all critical to the project.  If you think you can help with any of these or know someone who can please let us know.  We are also evaluating some of the abandoned horse trails on the property to see if they can be modified to be more bike friendly in the future.  All of the approved trails are shown on the map in dotted lines.  Phase 1 is in dark blue, Phase 2 and 3 are shown in orange and purple.  Phase 4 is shown in light blue.  If you want to look at the full proposal from the meeting you can find it here
