ABOUT US
Trails 2000 cares for trails with the assistance of many volunteers. We do trail work, organize volunteers and coordinate the projects. We care for all types of trails: hike, bike, horse, for school kids, you name it. Many people help; we encourage everyone to join in. Our group is very involved in the community and in trail planning.
Why do we value trails so much? The reasons are fundamental: the outdoors, Mother Nature, pleasant weather, spectacular landscapes, fitness, fresh air, open space. We cherish our surroundings and value our time outdoors. Trails are essential; they are our pathways to and through the outdoors.
