3 - Community Involvement     We enjoy strong backing from our community leaders, including the Madison County Park District, the City of London, and the London Parks and Recreation Department.  We are members of the Downtown London association of business merchants, and the Madison County Chamber of Commerce.

Our organization attends monthly meetings of the Madison County Park District, and frequently attends London City Council meetings.  We also staff information booths at various local events, to keep the community informed of the benefits of the trail.

Our organization has helped to make London a bicycle-friendly community.  The City of London has been the host for the MS150 Bikin' to the Beast Tour, and has also been a destination for XOBA - The Across Ohio Bicycle Adventure.  In 2002, London also hosted an overnight stay for 3000 cyclists during GOBA - The Great Ohio Bicycle Adventure. 

Our organization is also negotiating with Norfolk Southern Railroad in an effort to proceed with construction of the trail along the low-use industrial rail spur corridor through downtown London.
