Calling all Avalonia members and their friends!

You are encouraged to attend a public forum on the design of a highly accessible trail at Cedar Wood Preserve in Norwich. Part of Avalonia’s comprehensive accessibility initiative, this event will feature landscape architect Chad Frost of Kent+Frost, who will present his provisional design. No advance registration is required.

The trail, in the meadow portion of this 47-acre property on North Wawecus Hill Road, will be Avalonia’s first to meet the stringent requirements of the Forest Service Trail Accessibility Guidelines. The forum, organized in conjunction with the Disabilities Network of Eastern Connecticut, will provide an opportunity for the Avalonia community and the public to offer ideas and feedback before the design is finalized. Once completed, the plan will be the centerpiece of a grant application to the State of Connecticut for the funding of trail construction.
