Over the next six months the Valley Reporter and the Mad River Path (MRP) are bringing you content straight from the Path. Articles, videos, and audio clips will help the community get to know the Path system better between where it is, who hosts the sections, some fun history, exciting plans, and more. The content will be written and recorded by MRP Board Members and staff—all of whom are Mad River Valley residents and enthusiastic about helping the community get outside—so we hope you’ll stay entertained and well-informed by the different perspectives.
Coming up first you’ll hear from current Board Member, Betsy Jondros, and recently “retired” Board member, Laura Brines. They’ll share what we’re up to, where we’re headed, and some fascinating things from the past. After that, you’ll hear from current and upcoming landowner hosts of Path sections; these generous folks will tell you about why they host the Path and will paint you a clear picture on what it’s like to be a Path host. You’ll also learn about ways you can be and stay involved with the Mad River Path, the challenges we face as we work to accomplish our organization’s mission and goals, and you’ll even get to join us for some virtual tours of Path sections.
Keep an eye on weekly Valley Reporter issues, the Valley Reporter website at valleyreporter.com/index.php/recreation/mad-river-path (or see the Mad River Path tab), and the Mad River Path website at madriverpath.org. We hope you enjoy learning more about the Mad River Path!
