Meeting to discuss Underground Railroad, greenways, and more

[Todd_Scott]

Celebrate Detroit’s Underground Railroad history with the Adventure Cycling Association, the Michigan Trails and Greenways Alliance and the Michigan Freedom Trail Commission.

Learn about Adventure Cycling’s Underground Railroad Route**, updates on greenways and trails in the Detroit hub, and the Freedom Trail Commission’s efforts to designate the Detroit River as an International Heritage Site. Join us as we celebrate Detroit’s cultural heritage!

Bring friends, family, and fellow cyclists.

October 29, 2009  5:30 – 8:00 p.m.
Historic Second Baptist Church
441 Monroe Street, Detroit

RSVP by October 23rd to Beth Petersen: 800.755.2453 x 211 or bpetersen@adventurecycling.org.

**Note that the current Underground Railroad bicycle route doesn't go through Michigan. We are looking at adding a spur from Ohio to Detroit to Windsor and beyond.
