All proceeds benefit the continued development, activation, and enhancement of the Ohio & Erie Canalway, Towpath Trail, and connector trails.

We are offering FREE REGISTRATION for the first 35 veterans who register! If you are a veteran, please contact Lauren Anderson at (330) 374-5657 or  for your registration code.
