Congratulations outdoor enthusiasts! In a total of 296 gifts, $100,119 was raised for St. Joseph County Parks on May 9 during the GiveLocalSJC campaign. Bike Michiana Coalition’s generous grant of $15,000 will add to the efforts to finish the LaSalle Trail, which connects businesses and hotels, low incoming housing, a school, an assisted living facility and neighborhoods providing pedestrians and bicyclists a paved path free of motorized vehicles. FMI
(Overall totals: 67 organizations. Over $8 million raised. Way to go!)

County Council members are expected to decide later this month on the tourism funding, which could be used to shave a year off the timetable for completing the county’s LaSalle Trail, running a total of 3? miles from Douglas Road to the state line.
