We at Trailnet don't just talk about healthy, active living...we work to make it a reality.
Trailnet is a 23-year-old nonprofit membership organization, not a public entity. What this means is we depend on YOU, our members - to make a financial commitment so that we can continue to be on the leading edge, moving our region toward greater vibrancy and livability. It is a sign of the times that there is a growing number of taxpayer-funded and private organizations joining Trailnet in this essential endeavor - and we are thrilled. We recognize that as others join us in our planning, programming, and policy work, we are able, even encouraged, to step up, roll up our sleeves, and dig into the next "great idea."
We did just that by trail building 23 years ago; then taking on the charge of making two important Missouri-to-Illinois bridges bike/walk friendly; and then working with the railroads to create rails-to-trails projects that include Grant's Trail.
Over time, our purpose and work evolved significantly. We shifted from a narrow focus on trail development to a comprehensive emphasis on fostering healthy and active communities. We integrated work in public health, urban planning, policy advocacy, community organizing, and bike walk programming. Click here for more information about our work and our accomplishments.

Let's take the next bold step together. Let's work to continue moving St. Louis into the highly regarded, livable metropolitan area we all know it can be.
Thank you.
