Thrive Allen County along with our friends The Healthy Bourbon County Action Team and Live Well Crawford County are excited to announce a partnership to create a tri-county trail system funded by the Sunflower Foundation! Over the next year our communities will work together to create short and long-term trail and bicycle route plans to connect Allen, Bourbon and Crawford Counties. Like the ABC Trails page for more information, along with notifications of public meetings regarding the trails.
The first public multi-county trail forum will be held on Tuesday, September 25th from 6pm–7pm in Fort Scott (210 South National St.). Thrive Allen County, the Healthy Bourbon Action Team and Live Well Crawford County want to hear from you on a long distance, multi-county, connected trail system! Many of you have heard of trails like The Prairie Trail and understand the huge return on investment and many benefits that come with an extended trail system. We hope you can join us to look at maps and help develop the strategic plan between the Allen, Bourbon, and Crawford Counties. Light refreshments will be provided.
