“Trails for Kids” was started February 7,2009 when I went for a walk with my daughter Rachael  and discovered all the land in our parks and city property that was not being used. So with the help of 6 kids, sponsors, and friends, “Trails for Kids” built 3 miles of mountain biking and hiking trails in 2009. “Trails for Kids” hopes to inspire communities to develop and promote recreational trails by utilizing their unused space in city parks and publiclands for hiking and biking trails. "Trails for Kids" will have  built 6.5 miles of mountain biking and hiking trails for the kid in all of us by June 1,2010.

This is what a Pump Track can do for your park and your community!
