Would you like to see an extension of the Simon Kenton Trail?
(Since Simon Kenton traveled north and possibly used the old railroad area, it only makes sense to continue the Simon Kenton Trail to the North.) If interested, contact us at nlb@ctcn.net or sign the petition at the The Depot Coffee House.
