Toe Valley Trail Project has been busy.

Armin Wessel proposed that we establish an Art/Loan program, where Artists would display sculpture at chosen sites for a given period of time or until it sold. We have several artists that have generously offered to posibly participate in the program. They include: Carl Peverall, Martin Webster, David Boone, Nathan Blank, and Ila Seltzer. Armin is working on a site on South Main, Burnsville. Judy Smith and David Oye are working on a site in Bald Creek.
