Chicken BBQ a Big Success!

  As is says on our Home page, the Trail sustained a lot of damage over the winter.  Stumps remained and sections of the trail washed away. 

To respond to the damage, the committee has estimated they would need to raise $25,000 to repair the damage and prepare the trail for the coming winter. The group started the 2020 Summer/Fall Challenge to raise the funds on Facebook and Go Fund Me. Donations are also coming in from the Cattaraugus County Community Foundation website. Several local contractors have stepped forward to assist in the work. JD Northrup Construction, Bill Steinbroner, and Phil Vogt have donated hours, workers and equipment to clear stumps and grade the drainage. Engineer Mark Alianello says the path will have to be seeded and covered with straw to protect the seed. These types of “in-kind” donations are invaluable to the fundraising efforts.
