The Three Rivers Park District received a $10,000 grant to help construct 7.7 miles of singletrack in Elm Creek Park Reserve. This trail helped to meet a need for singletrack in the northern suburbs of Minneapolis and, because it connects to 20 miles of multi-use path, it serves as a gateway to mountain biking in the park. Our funding helped match a Recreational Trails Program grant for the trail system, which is maintained by volunteers from MORC, the Minnesota Off Road Cyclists.
