Karen’s Trail is a project supported by DXA2 2019 (http://dxa2.com/) . It aims to close the gaps in the B2B Trail. When finished, the B2B will be a paved, non-motorized trail that follows the Huron River all the way from its entry into Washtenaw County near Pinckney until its exit into Wayne County near Belleville. See this site for more information about the project and Karen. http://huron-waterloo-pathways.org/karens-trail/

Support of Karen’s Trail is a concrete example of one of our strategic goals. Our Vision Statement states that the AATC “will be proactive in engaging with other public and private entities and other running organizations to advocate for the creation of running areas and running-friendly spaces.” Another goal is “effective advocacy and a proactive role in the preservation of the Huron River and adjacent nature areas in the city/county.”
