More Ways to Serve You!
The Linn County Trails Association has launched a new website and communication tool. We've invested in technology to ensure that trail users, friends of the trails, and those interested in trail development have an ability to stay connected to current trail developments.
There are several new enhancements with the website and our communication tools. Here are a few highlights -
- Trail users can now view detailed trails maps with descriptions and lengths of the trail
- Trail users can report problems on the trail with the appropriate governing body
- Trail users can get instant feedback about the status of trails
- Facebook and Twitter, and email communication (www.facebook.com/lctrails or www.twitter.com/lctrails)
We encourage you to go explore, give us your feedback and take advantage of the resources on the website.
Thanks again for supporting the trails in Linn County!
Happy Trails,
Geoff Eastburn
