Greenprints Alliance

Gary Moore, Executive Director of the Greenprints Alliance presented to the Nov 4, 2015 monthly board meeting.

Brookshire and Cherokee residents should be aware of the trail system and its development within Woodstock — like the Old Rope Mill Park (across 575 from the subdivision) and Noonday Creek trails, among others. The trails and greenspace are a fantastic enhancement to the livability of Woodstock.

The initiative is always in need of volunteers for committees, board members — especially those with marketing and fundraising experience.  Volunteer or donate here: http://www.woodstocktrails.com/takeaction/
