Trail Project Update

By Becky Fitzgerald on September 26, 2022

Because of many generous donations to assist with paving Meadowlark's loop trail, a section stretching from Stillman Cemetery to the woods of Donner's Way is scheduled to be paved. This summer, grading and paving was completed from the west side of the bridge near the CenterPointe Physicians office to Donner's Way. This work also included walkways north of the community garden and from the trail to the physicians office parking lot. 

The next phase to be completed this year spans the area from the cemetery to the east side of the bridge. Bayer Construction has been hired to grade the trail, preparing a surface onto which the concrete will be poured. This work is expected to begin in mid-October. BHS Construction is standing by to pour the concrete as soon as the grading is complete. In addition, concrete pathways inside the community garden space also are scheduled to be poured. It's BHS's intention to have the work complete by the end of October, weather permitting. 

The Paving the Way project was sparked by tribute gifts in honor of former residents the Rev. H. Wayne Fink and Ed Call and current Lyle House resident Jo Call. The project will continue as donations allow. If you'd like to know more, or would like to contribute to this project, please contact Becky Fitzgerald, Development Director, at (785) 323-3843.
