People Gates Added to Walking Path
Thursday, October 4th, 2007
” alt=”Brenda builds people gate” />On a beautiful Sunday afternoon as September slipped into October, Shane and Brenda Mischel and Peggy Iba added narrow access gates to the fences and gates that were keeping the cows in, four-wheelers and walkers out. Now there is permanent access for the walkers on the Jaycee West Park Dike loop. As part of a Paddlefish Grant the walking path afficionados purchased the materials and followed plans from the extension service, with the approval of West Glendive Public Works.
Everyone is encouraged to go out and enjoy the 2 mile walk. You can access the dike from Jaycee West Park or you can start from the back parking lot of MaddHatters. Walking paths were one of the community projects that came out of the Horizons leadership program funded by the Northwest Area Foundation in 2005.
