Trail workshop set for April 3

More like these, please...

Everyone interested in planning potential trail routes for the Sisters Trail System may attend a workshop on Wednesday, April 3, at the Sisters High School Cafetorium from 5 to 8 p.m.

The workshop will be ongoing and members of the public may stop in anytime during those hours and stay as long as they like, according to organizers.

Refreshments will be served.

There will be maps of the area and general information about the proposed Sisters Trail System.

The goal of the workshop is to gather ideas from the public on where a network of hiking, biking, equestrian and commuter trail routes should go to link area neighborhoods with downtown Sisters, schools and the surrounding National Forest.

The workshop format will be informal, with small groups discussing potential trail routes based on participants' knowledge of the Sisters area and their interests.

In addition to the opportunity to help plan trail routes, information on funding the trail system will be available along with the chance for workshop attendees to sign on as trail advocates.

Representatives from the City of Sisters and Deschutes National Forest will be on hand to answer questions about the role of those agencies in the Sisters Trail System.

The Sisters Trail Committee will use the information gathered at the workshop to develop a draft trail plan.
