Runnins River Trails Ribbon Cutting

Posted

Dreary skies and spitting drizzle couldn’t dampen the spirits of those in attendance at the ribbon cutting of the Runnins River Trails on Saturday, May 13.

Eagle Scout candidate Connor Pozzi of Seekonk Boy Scout Troop One and Girl Scout Catherine Testa of Seekonk Troop 460 had the honor of cutting the ribbon to officially open the trail located behind Town Hall. In addition to clearing the area at the trailhead, Pozzi transplanted pine saplings while Testa planted rhododendrons and blazed the trails as part of their respective scouting projects.

Following a welcome by Seekonk’s Conservation Agent Jennifer Miller and remarks by Selectman David Andrade and Thompson Webb of Seekonk’s Land Conservation Trust, those in attendance were treated to refreshments provided by Krazy Korner Bagel, Stop and Shop, Dunkin Donuts and Young’s Catering.

Other activities during the morning included guided nature walks, public safety demos by Seekonk’s Police and Fire Departments, scavenger hunts, and other games and activities.
