National Trails & Maintenance Day @ JCS Arboretum & Senator Roch Riverwalk Month!

The JAYCEES Alumni will be advocating walking/hiking, planting/pruning, wildlife and water fowl observations along their 400 linear foot award-winning Arboretum, the 1.3 mile rugged state Senator Donald Roch Riverwalk, traversing along the newly-established West Warwick Riverwalk (Pawtuxet River Valley Walkway) and the extensive six(6) mile West Bay Bikepath or Greeway, connecting the municipalities of Cranston, Warwick, West Warwick and Coventry in central Rhode Island.

This picturesque trail system is nestled along the longest waterway of the state and its all-important confluence of the north and south branches, the Pawtuxet River and its watershed.

National Trail Day is the largest nationwide celebration designed to promote healthy lifestyles, outdoor open space activities such as paddling / kayaking, trail walking/running, wildlife and water fowl observations and the overall concept of connecting the public with trails in their communities and regions while building partnerships to protect and enhance trails and nature lanes.

The JAYCEE Arboretum and Senator Roch River walk was recently recognized with a Student Award via the RI Chapter of the American Planning Association(APA) with design drawing contributions by the URI Landscape Architectural Department through the West Warwick Planning Office - 

The JAYCEES will be carrying out such Trail Activities starting the month of June and per reservations till October in their Clean-ups & Green-ups Program.
