NEWS AND

OPPORTUNITIES TO SUPPORT TRAILS

 

CLIMB ON BOARD!
TRAIL LINKS CAMPAIGN

TRAIL LINKS Campaign will build upon the success of York's Heritage Rail Trail County Park by linking York County families and communities to two exciting trail extensions.

TRAIL LINKS Campaign began with a kick-off event in York City on June 21, 2006.

Contributions to the TRAIL LINKS Campaign will provide the funding necessary to develop a 5.5-mile Northern Extension of the Heritage Rail Trail and 11.5 miles of the Hanover Trolley Trail.

For more information on the Northern Extension and the Hanover Trolley Trail, visit the Projects Page from the website's main page and click on the project name.

To make a contribution, return to the website Main Page and click on the TRAIL LINKS CAPITAL CAMPAIGN icon.

All contributions, from children placing $1 in an envelope to corporate multi-year pledges, are vital to the success of the TRAIL LINKS Campaign. Each contribution will directly support the development of these extensions to the Heritage Rail Trail County Park...

...linking York County families and communities to the many benefits of the Trail.

And THANK YOU for being a part of trail development in York County.
