Summer Of The Swamp Rabbit

The title of this post sounds like a R.L. Stine children's horror story novel, but isn't meant to be alarmist.

The truth is, chilling facts are in the headlines regarding our local "rails to trails" project ~ The Swamp Rabbit Trail.

With litigation also looming over property rights and civil matters … can we really afford this taxpayer headache?

The headlines should have you concerned about bringing the same to Pickens County via the Doodle Trail.
