I hope everyone had a good couple of weeks since our last work session. This Saturday the weather should be warmer and the flood waters have receded, so its time to get back to work. Do to flood damage we will be meeting at River Front Park by the playground verses the Grand Street parking lot which is currently closed and in need of repairs. We will meet @ 9:00 am and work until 11:00am.
Last night I meet with the Independence City Council and gave a report on our progress. They and the Mayor are supportive of our project and I encouraged them to come out and help. Afterward I was approached by a reporter from the Itemizer Observer, who would like to do a story on our project. I spoke with him via the phone and gave some details on what we are up to. They will most likely be sending a photographer down this week or maybe next, and the story should be published in the next couple of weeks. I am hoping this will bring more help and support to move the trail forward faster (many hands make lighter work), and inform running enthusiasts. -SG

Saturday April 14th 9:00am - work session
