SUMMARY:June 18 - REI Water Fountain Ribbon Cutting
DESCRIPTION:In 2020 the Madison town team of Shoreline Greenway Trail was awarded a grant from REI’s Milford CT store. With support of Hammonasset Beach State Park staff\, a new water station was installed near the Greenway Trail parking lot at Hammonasset. It’s already in use by humans and dogs! \nOn June 18th at 10 am Shoreline Greenway Trail (an REI grantee) will hold a celebratory ribbon cutting. Because of previous COVID-19 restrictions\, the event is long overdue and we are excited to have representatives from REI\, the SGT\, State\, and local dignitaries. Please join us at the Hammonasset Beach State Park outer parking lot (just north of the main entrance to the park) as we celebrate this great project together! \n \nAny questions can be addressed to Dan Buckley of the Shoreline Greenway Trail at danbuckley@shorelinegreenwaytrail.org The Shoreline Greenway Trail consists of four town teams – one each in Madison\, Guilford\, Branford\, and East Haven\, and each collaborates with other towns and advocacy groups in the interest of a more bike- and pedestrian-friendly Shoreline. Each town team works closely with town governments and residents as they develop and implement local solutions!
