BEYOND THE LEGACY
A University of Kentucky landscape architecture studio is conducting a project throughout this semester called "Beyond the Legacy", which will explore possibilities of linking the proposed Legacy Trail here in Lexington (which will run from downtown to the Kentucky Horse Park) to other areas of the Bluegrass. These trail extensions would include biking and walking trails (and possibly other types) as a part of the network. The students would like to invite members of the KSPE Bluegrass Chapter to public meetings as potential stakeholders in this project. The first public meeting is scheduled for February 12th at 2:00pm at the Fayette County Extension Office, located at 1140 Red Mile Place in Lexington. The next two meetings will be at the same location on March 10th and April 16th.
