The Celebration of Trails is pleased to announce a new initiative called Teens ‘N’ Trails.  Over the next few months dozens of youth will be participating in leadership workshops that will provide them with information and skills for planning events on trails. We will determine what types of activities inspire teens to use trails and to participate in trail events. We also hope that local youth will volunteer to help trail, health, and community groups organize trail events in their communities.  For more information please contact Project Manager at 705-328-0261 ext. 30 or trails@kawarthasmallbusiness.com
