Hantsport Rails to Trails Society

Letter from Ross Hermiston to this blog:

At various places, such as the Hantsport Fair and  the Celebrate the Shamrocks event, I promoted the idea of a People Trail on the old Windsor-Hantsport Railway line. At one such event you ( and 31 others) signed a paper in support of developing the trail.               I am writing to you to see if you would be interested in joining a group to work on that project.              I received a letter from Kate Sircom who suggests that we form a Hantsport Rails to Trail Society: She writes:  Hi Ross: I recently attended a meeting of the Greenwich Rails to Trails group.  They are concerned with completing the trail from Wolfville to New  Minas. There is a similar group that is active in Grand Pre,  concerned with getting a trail completed from Grand Pre to Wolfville.  Are you interested in forming a Hantsport Rails-to Trails Society that  would investigate building a trails section from Hantsport to  Avonport? I do believe there is some interest in Avonport. We would  have to stop there, because the bridge I think is not safe....  I am busy with courses until July 19th, but can do a bit of work after that.  Thanks,  Kate Sircom If you are interested in joining such a group, or better yet, interesting in organizing such a group, please reply and  send any suggestions.
