I know with the snow this morning, you probably aren’t thinking about getting out to use the trail system for activity, but I am guessing you are probably wishing we were enjoying the warmer temps and nicer weather like we did this last weekend! The Park and Rec crew has already been out to the trails and working on cleaning it up and getting it ready for use. It’s a great part of Watertown and we want to encourage you all to use it, thus I wanted to inform you all of a great opportunity to utilize the Watertown trail system for exercise while participating in a challenge. Jeremy Herrboldt, adult and senior activities coordinator with the Watertown Park and Rec developed a really great program that is new this year. The details are below and it starts May 1st and runs through September 30th. This snow will be melting and the warmer temps will be coming back to stay soon, so be sure to check out this new challenge and get signed up by contacting Jeremy at 882-6260.
Watertown Recreational Trail Challenge NEW!
Ever wonder how many miles you have biked, run or walked on the Watertown Recreational Trail? Well this summer we want you to keep track and participate in the Watertown Recreational Trail Challenge. Starting May 1 you can stop at the Park and Rec. Fieldhouse and pick up a tracking sheet that also has the mileage chart for the Recreational Trail on it. Keep track of how many miles you bike, run or walk, then at the end of summer by September 30 just turn your tracking sheets back in and we will tabulate who the three people are who have biked, walked or run the most miles and those three will be recognized later in the month as the ones who put on the most miles on our beautiful trail system.
Dates: May1-September 30
Fee: Free
Location: All miles must be on the Watertown Recreational Trail
