National Trails Day Celebrated!

National Trails Day 2009 will be recognized on June 6, 2009, bringing together outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds to celebrate the great natural heritage of the United States trail system. Traditionally held each year on the first Saturday in June, National Trails Day was established to recognize the value of recreational trails and the people involved in building and maintaining them. Whether it's your local Park Service, the U.S. Forest Service, or a volunteer group trail preservation is necessary to keep City of Newark trails open to the public and available for years to come. Look for the City of Newark booth at Newark Nite for more information or give us a call at 366-7060.

This year join in the fun with a Parks scavenger hunt on National Trails Day.

Simply drop by the Parks & Recreation Department or visit the City web site on Friday, June 5 to get your list and turn them in at Newark Nite at the Parks and Recreation booth or email no later than 9:30pm on Saturday, June 6 to parksrec@newark.de.us.

Get out and enjoy all Delaware has to offer!
