American Hiking Society’s National Trails Day is coming up on June 5, so it’s time to get excited about Tennessee’s beautiful trails.
“National Trails Day encourages people to discover their local trails, become active concerning trail issues and share their excitement for the outdoors,” said Renee Ensor, parks and recreation program administrator.
To celebrate the day, Kingsport’s Parks and Recreation is having a contest to get people out walking on some of Kingsport’s trails. To participate, post a picture of yourself at the Greenbelt, Borden Park or Lynn View track to the Parks and Recreation Facebook page. You will then be entered to win a free shelter rental for up to three hours.
