Anyone want to attend?  It sure would be nice if we could get a trail spur up to launch at Andersons.

I'll bet the club could donate some time or money if this is feasible.

OREGON RECREATIONAL TRAILS ADVISORY COUNCIL TO MEET AUG. 10 IN TILLAMOOK
Posted: July 27th, 2012 10:36 AM

The Oregon Recreational Trails Advisory Council will meet Aug. 10 at Cape Lookout State Park to review and discuss local, non-motorized trail plans and initiatives. The meeting will be held in the Loop C meeting hall, 13000 Whiskey Creek Rd W from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Council members will tour local trail projects on Aug. 11. Council meetings are open to the public, and citizens are invited to comment at 11 a.m.

The Oregon Recreational Trails Advisory Council (ORTAC) was established by the Legislature in 1971 to advise the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department and to promote non-motorized trail recreation and development in Oregon. The Council is made up of seven volunteer members appointed by the Oregon Park and Recreation Commission to represent the five Oregon congressional districts. The Council meets four times annually in different locations across the state. For more information about the Sandy meeting or about ORTAC, contact Rocky Houston, State Trails Coordinator, at (503) 986-0750, rocky....@state.or.us.

Caution: I've heard that we benefit from the fact that the launch is a grey area as to who controls it, the highway department or the state park.  I'm not saying that advocating for a spur would be obviously a lousy idea, but I'm not sure.  Steve

PS I always use the trail that comes up just north of the launch, it's fine as far as I'm concerned (but I'm not carrying up a big bag).   Steve

Will be out of town, but I agree that it would be extremely worth while for one of us to be there.  -Pete R.
