Tim will present on the vision for the Alexandria Nature Trail, a trail that would connect the City north-south roughly following the alignment of the SE watershed. This trail and the associated buffer has the potential of preserving natural habitat, protecting water quality, boosting economics, and providing non-motorized access throughout the City.

Come learn more about this trail and have your questions answered.

This meeting will be held at 7 p.m. at Calvary Lutheran Church, 605 Douglas St. in Alexandria, MN.  Come early, as refreshments will be served at the beginning of the meeting.  We look forward to seeing you there to meet other folks interested in nature, birds, and conservation!

There is no cost to attend this program. For further information please contact by email [email protected]
