Rail-Trail Hall of Fame:
Beginning this year, Rails-to-Trails Conservancy is nationally recognizing exemplary rail-trails around the country for induction into the Rail-Trail Hall of Fame. Rails-to-Trails Conservancy will select first-year inductees on merits such as scenic value, high use, trail and trailside amenities, historical significance, excellence in management and maintenance of facility, community connections and geographic distribution.
Inductees for 2007 were announced this July, September and October. Promotion of the program will include award signage for the trail, a special Trail of the Month feature on Rails-to-Trails Conservancy's Web site, and coverage in Rails to Trails magazine. The five-year program will run through December 2011 when the 25th—and final—Rail-Trail Hall of Fame inductee will be selected to coincide with Rails-to-Trails Conservancy's 25th Anniversary.
