HCIA Trails/CHATT (Citizens of Headwaters for Active Transportation Team) will again be partnering with the
Ontario Trails Council (OTC) to host a Trails Summit. The OTC has a wonderful track record of hosting and managing
Trailhead events. This event to be supported by our partners at the County of Dufferin, The Town of Mono, and Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health. The Summit will be an opportunity for stakeholders, interested groups and residents to come together and discuss all things Trail.
What has happened since the first summit in 2009? Given our growing population and identification of Well-Being issues in our latest
Well-Being Report, what are the Trail priorities now?
