Help Design Camp Sekani Trail System

You can help plan a future trail system for Spokane's Camp Sekani, or Beacon Hill, area. The Fat Tire Trail Riders Club is leading an effort to formalize a trail plan for the area off Upriver Drive, and you can take part by clicking here to take a quick survey.

Your feedback through this survey will be one piece of information that designers will use in a workshop planned for the fall. Mark your calendar for the Beacon Hill Trail Connections “Charrette” (a fancy name for a design workshop) on October 24-25, 2008. The charrette will focus on producing creative solutions for linking Beacon Hill to local schools, city bike routes, neighborhood parks, the Centennial Trail and other community treasures. It will also focus on ways to improve access and use of the trails. A Community Open House showcasing the design work will follow on Saturday evening, October 25.
