Volunteers Put Finishing Touches On Trails At Hinson Conservation and Recreation Area
This past Saturday a group of volunteers from the Florida Trail Association (FTA), along with local volunteers, spent the day putting some finishing touches on the extensive trail system that has been developed at Hinson Conservation and Recreation Area. The development of the trail system has been an on going process that has included planning, design and construction. The effort has been a partnership that was initiated by the City of Marianna along with the Chipola Greenway Volunteers and the FTA.
"Catch The Spirit"
I ran into Mark Hebb last week and as usual our conversation quickly turned to the Hinson Conservation and Recreation Area, or Hinson Park as I call it. I commented to him that I sure had been enjoying the new trails that were constructed by the Florida Trail Association (FTA) and local volunteers.
Mark mentioned that a group of volunteers from the FTA and Marianna would be gathering Saturday to do some touch up work on the trails. (See related story on page B3). I thought it might be an opportunity to pitch in, and a morning of touch up work didn't sound too difficult.
