The Town of Lloyd Economic
Development Committee [EDC] has issued
a friendly Walking Challenge to the public
with the objective of bringing people
together while highlighting many of the
local attractions.
In a press release the EDC stated that
participants can pick up a color “passport”
at the kiosk that is located on Havilland
Road, off of Rte. 9W, across from the red
caboose. There are five trails in Lloyd
that make up the 20.5 mile challenge - the
Franny Reese State Park, the Walkway
Over the Hudson, the Johnson-Iorio
Park/Mid Hudson Bridge, the Hudson
Valley Rail Trail and the Berean Park/
Illinois Mountain trail. An included tri-
fold describes each of the walks, their
length and degree of difficulty from easy
to moderate.
As a participant finishes each of the
trails, they will receive a sticker to affix
to their “Passport.” After all five are
completed the “Passport” is then mailed
to or dropped off at Town Hall and they
will receive a commemorative patch that
can be displayed on a hat, shirt or jacket.
Superintendent
Paul
Hansut
commended the EDC for the “good and
positive things they do for the town” and
introduced committee chairman Charles
Glasner and member Gary Pregno to
describe the Challenge for the Town
Board and the public.
