PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • March 6, 2024
I have been a professional trail planner, designer, and builder for nearly a decade. Since my youth, I have been an avid trail user. Maine is woefully behind the rest of the country with trail infrastructure. And the best option for improvement and expansion today comes in the form of the Maine Trails Bond. The Maine Trails Bond is not just about repairing and building cool trails, its about repairing and building incredible communities. I moved here because I know this is one of the best places to live, work and raise a family. I urge the Legislature to support the Maine Trails Bond. It’s time to dream big. ~ Steve Kasacek, Outdoor Sport Institute and leadership team of the Maine Trails Coalition
