[RC] Trails perservation and land grant colleges. - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: kate kate.kearby@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== I know that NATRC has someone that works lobbying for trails in D.C. I thought i'd heard of AERC folks involved in that effort. Another thing / place you can look to for land for trails is land grant universities, like vet colleges, often they have thousands of acres and if you smooze them right the find a great relationship with trail riders as tenders of their land. we work on land owned by Oklahoma state U. here's a link to their equestrian trails and we are developing camp grounds etc thru use of grants from tourism, and trails with natrc grants and hoping to figure out how to put in for an AERC grant. the grants don't pay for everything, takes lots of volunteer hours, but it's a beautiful place. http://vpaf.okstate.edu/LCB/EquestrianTrails.htm =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
