Walking Trails in the Crowsnest Pass

Did you know walking is listed by more people than any other form of exercise, has the number one favourite type of recreation.
In the Pass we have developed a master plan for walking trails that will eventually link all parts of our community from the lakes out to Leitch Collieries, this plan is available on the municipal web site http://www.town.crowsnestpass.ab.ca/
A lot of people deserve credit for this accomplishment, the previous council for starting the process, (those members that supported it and even those that didn't who are now taking credit), our community services department, the present council for continuing with it. Almost all of the trails have been funded with grants (not residential tax dollars). We now have a Walking Trails Coordinator Jenice Smith based at the MDM who is working very hard to get the corporate sector involved.
We really need to give credit this week to a couple of corporations who stepped up to the plate this week, namely Spray Lakes Sawmills to the tune of $10,000 and Turtle Mountain Pharmacy $6000.
Also did not want to miss businesses that have given support previously, Mountain Radio, Full Moon Adventure Company, A&B Liquor Store, and Prima Technical Services.
The Walking Trails are a great accomplishment for this community, and are utilized by a lot of people.
