The
Bike Trail between Elkhart and Goshen is
nearly complete. The pavement has been laid,
the bridges are set, and the road crossings are in place. Now bicyclists
and pedestrians have a safe, dedicated trail, to travel between the
two cities or
to take a day trip out to Ox Bow County Park.
There
is still one thing missing —
A Name for the Trail!
The Elkhart/Goshen Bike Trail Committee
has a challenge for area residents and other
outdoor enthusiasts — help name the trail.
The
new name will be used to officially identify
the trail in the future. The name should reflect a natural, historical
or cultural aspect of the area.
