DAN HINDMAN 

Project manager for the Exploratory Partnership

The partnership is exploring options to create a nature trail from Broadway to Front Royal which will pass through the towns of Timberville, New Market, Mt. Jackson, Edinburg, Woodstock and Strasburg. Primarily aimed at providing a space for bikers, hikers, joggers, or equestrians, it will also encourage those who use it to patronize local business, parks, cultural and historic attractions in the area. The Early Travel Exhibit will remain on display through December.
