Latest News:

Registration for new 5k now open. Send in your registration form for the inaugural running of the Treading for Trails 5k Run/Walk. The event will take place July 25, 2009, on the newly-opened Lewisville section of the National Road Heritage Trail. Come help us celebrate with a little fresh air and exercise. Runners and walkers of all ages and abilities are welcome. Not sure you can do a full 5K (about 3.1 miles)? The course is a simple out-and-back, so run or walk as far as you want, then turn around and come home! The race starts at 8:00 AM at the South Henry Regional Wastewater District, 301 South Williams St (just south of US 40) in Lewisville, Indiana.

We're building trails! Years of hard work and planning are starting to come together in 2009 as construction begins on what will become a network of trails in Henry County. Nearly five miles of new trail will be competed this summer between Knightstown and Lewisville on the trans-Indiana National Road Heritage Trail. We need your help! If you would like to support the building of trails and greenways in Henry county, or just want to know more about what we're doing, please drop us a line. Read more about this in our trails section.

FUN Playground turns 10. This year marks the tenth anniversary of the FUN Playground in Baker Park. We've been doing a little sprucing up to celebrate, but there's more work to be done. Please help us if you can.
