Grab the kids and check out Armleder Park Trail Connection!
22 Jun, 2012. 0 Comments. News. Posted By: lncigc
Armleder Park Trail Connection This trail opened with a dedication ceremony on June 14 and connects the Otto Armleder Park (which includes a great dog park, by the way), with the Lunken airport bike trail.  The connection gives you 8 miles of trail to walk or bike – great for the whole family.  An interesting piece of information – the Armleder Park was determined to have more birds than any other park in our area, so take the binoculars when you go and ask the kids how many species they can spot.  Learn more about the new trail here.
