National Trails Day® is a day of public events aimed at advocacy and trail service. Thousands of hikers, bikers, rowers, horseback riders, trail clubs, federal and local agencies, land trusts, and businesses come together in partnership to advocate for, maintain, and clean up public lands and trails.  The Anne Springs Close Greenway is pleased to be part of this initiative and has planned a morning of hikes to get members on the trails and closer to nature.
