Annual membership dues provide funds to maintain the parks and pathways
to the highest standards. A few facts about the system this community has
built and maintains without general tax dollars:
- 10 miles of paved pathway need periodic repair, plus sweeping and snow
removal
- 3 grassy parks take two people two days to mow each week during the summer
- 112 garbage cans need checking and servicing once or twice every day
- 14 restrooms need checking and servicing every day
Members enjoy the satisfaction of knowing they are part of keeping our
Greenway secure and beautiful.
All contributions to the Greenway are tax deductible to the fullest extent
of the law.
