Trail Blazers Make the Difference
By Gene Weber and Robin Fatzinger
Our Platteville Community Arboretum & Trail honors our Trail Blazers every year by posting their names on a kiosk at the David Canny Rountree Branch trail entrance adjacent to Delta 3 Engineering at 875 South Chestnut Street.
Trail Blazers are those special people who contribute $250 or more per year to our Platteville Community Arboretum and Trail.
You enable and incent our many wonderful volunteers to maintain and enhance your trail in so many creative ways - removing invasives and downed trees, planting native trees, plants, flowers and shrubs; funding artistic bike racks and works of art; and so much more. You make the difference!
