Source and Use of Funds


The following financial information covers the period from 2012 through 2020:  We have received $1,110,505  from more than 500 individual donors, corporations, and grants (Public & private) .   Our all volunteer Board has allowed us to focus 95% of our expenditures on Trail Development & Plans.
​
​The first section of the Trail was constructed in Saugatuck Township in 2016-17.  It was funded using a $355,000 grant from the federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ).
