"River-to-River" trail pushed in Lawrence, KS

Submitted by Brent Hugh on Wed, 08/04/2004 - 9:14pm
The Lawrence Journal-World has an article about a proposed 5-mile trail in Lawrence:
Two Lawrence men are leading the push for an east-side trail that would connect the Wakarusa and Kansas rivers for hikers and bicyclists.

"The footprints are already there," said Jim McCrary, a poet who has long been active with the East Lawrence Neighborhood Assn. "We think it's something the taxpayers should be educated about."

McCrary and Clark Coan, who has been involved in the Kanza Rail-Trails Conservancy, say the proposed five-mile recreational path through East Lawrence would offer varied scenery, glimpses of history, and an economic boost.
