Friends of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail Annual Meeting

The Friends of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail is holding its annual meeting on Saturday October 20, from 10 am to noon at Hilary’s Restaurant in Morrisville, VT.

The meeting will feature a panel presentation by Ted Chase, Chairman of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail (LVRT) Management Committee, Zeke Zucker, member of the Trail Management Committee, and Alan Robertson, LVRT Project Engineer. The panel will report on the status of the trail today and plans for the future.

Members of the Friends of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail will also elect board members for the coming year at the annual meeting.

The Lamoille Valley Rail Trail is a partnership between the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers (VAST) and the State of Vermont. The trail runs almost 100 miles across Vermont from St. Johnsbury to Swanton. Once complete, the trail will be open to snow mobiles, as well as non-motorized uses including walking, running, biking, cross country skiing, snow shoeing, equestrian use, and dog sledding.

The Friends of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail's purpose is to support the development, maintenance, and promotion of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail as a public resource offering a tranquil and scenic year-round, multi-use recreation and transportation corridor and especially to represent the interest of the non-motorized trail users.

The Friends of the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail annual meeting is free and open to the public. A light continental breakfast will be served. Only members will vote on the new board of directors.
