County finalizes Swedish Immigrant Trail purchase; landowners donate $1,500 back
"What a phenomenally awesome early Christmas gift for all the current and future residents of Chisago County, and future users of the Swedish Immigrant Trail;" says Joe Johnson, Chisago County Parks and Trail Foundation Board member.
The Chisago County Parks and Trails Foundation is currently raising funds to provide a local match for the anticipated Legacy Grant. Known as the Swedish Immigrant Trail East End Project, the grant will provide construction funding for a trail from the Taylors Falls Community Center, through Wildwood Campground, and out to Tern Avenue.
Foundation members expect to hear about the county's legacy grant application by the end of December. The project is being completed in cooperation with the MNDNR, Interstate State Park officials and the City of Taylors Falls.
