The purpose of the
program is to assist in
maintaining assigned segments of the Prairie Grass Trail in Madison
County.
Responsibilities
include cleaning debris from the trail, and helping to
maintain a safe trail by reporting hazards, obstacles and any
adverse trail conditions.
Boy Scout Troop 102 pioneered the program in 2004 by becoming the first
organization to adopt a trail segment. (See related press releases below.)
Please contact us
if you
are interested in

the following segments, and several
other organizations have already volunteered!
