The link to the Facebook was somehow reformatted at the end of my last email. Here is the correct link: http://www.facebook.com/events/794547287267732/

The CIED building is the Center for Innovation and Economic Development (CIED) at 530 West University Avenue (east of the new rail trail at the intersection of University Avenue and 6th Street) in Gainesville. A map is available on the Facebook event page.

Please contact me with any additional questions.

The proposed Original Florida Corridor passing through Alachua County and the exciting opportunities that Amendment 1 funding may bring for trail construction will also be addressed.

While providing residents with many transportation, recreation and health benefits, a long-distance trail will also build greatly on our area's natural beauty, cultural centers, historic towns, and local sporting events to make Alachua County an even more desirable destination for tourism. We invite you to join us in our vision.
