Rock River Trail Initiative honored by the Quad City Riverfront Council
The Rock River Trail Initiative was honored on May 19, 2015 by the Quad City Riverfront Council for development of bike and water trails along the Rock River at an awards luncheon in Moline, Ill. last Tuesday. Pictured are Greg Farnham (l) and Frank Schier (r), co-coordinators of the Initiative with Bill Nelson, parks director of the city of Rock Island, and Kathy Wine, executive director of River Action of Davenport. Great folks and trails in the Quad Cities!
The Rock River Trail Initiative was given an award with an inscription that reads: For the ongoing development of bike and water trails along the Rock River. These developments have contributed to the enhancements and recognition of the riverfront.
The RRTI also wishes to recognize the integral work of Dean Mathias on the Rock River Trail Bike Route and his excellent contacts throughout the Quad Cities area. We would not be as far along as we are without the continued productive efforts of Bareback.
