LETTER FROM CHRIS AND JULIE

Not that long ago, Traverse City’s bayfront consisted of shuttered up factories, commercial warehouses, and a battered and neglected shoreline. Thanks to city and regional leadership, the work of many individuals and non-profit organizations, and significant local, state, federal and tribal investments, today we enjoy a waterfront that boasts deep blue waters, inviting beaches and parkland, active public spaces, and a bustling section of the Traverse Area Recreational Trail (TART) hosting over 2 million visits each year.

This past summer, the Michigan Department of Transportation launched plans for improvements to the Grandview Parkway between Garfield and Division Streets. Front and center in community conversations around MDOT’s work is the community’s passion and connection to West Grand Traverse Bay. We know it will take strong partnerships to protect and enhance the waterfront and reimagine better connections to and along the bayfront. And we’re excited about what we’re seeing in state and local leadership to lean into those partnerships for a better way to move along this corridor.

Our region has a reputation for getting things done, which is why we’re optimistic about the opportunity to build on past successes and look forward to an improved and expanded TART along the bayfront that will link all of our parks and neighborhoods, businesses, and community institutions from Garfield to Division. We believe the TART improvement and expansion effort will, like it did nearly 30 years ago, catalyze action to support a more robust active transportation network. There is a clear expectation that we continue to seek ways to thoughtfully improve and expand access for more people to get outside and experience northern Michigan’s beauty—but in the face of climate change and housing costs, we know the need is now for more efficient and enjoyable ways to commute by bike, foot, and bus.

It is the success of partnerships of the past and passionate community expectations still in place that keep our gaze up, always seeking better ways to work together and looking for new opportunities to make critical connections. With our eyes on the horizon, we recognize our collective actions make for stronger, healthier communities where our physical and spiritual needs can be met, our environment is valued and protected, our economic successes are shared, and all of our community members feel welcome and safe.

With your help, we are building on the past, looking toward the future, and every day grateful for the trails you helped create that connect us all.

ANNUAL REPORT I OCTOBER 1, 2020 — SEPTEMBER 30, 2021

Beyond Your Back Door Over the last two years, the constant change has provided the unique opportunity to rethink and reimagine our surroundings. It grants us permission to refocus our lens and concentrate on what is most important in our lives—physical health, mental wellbeing, family, community, and the natural world around us. Trails thread through and support all of these. That is why we have been hard at work to make every home a trailhead.

Imagine an entire region linked with safe, comfortable, and convenient corridors to take you where you want to go by foot or by bike, connecting you to the people and places you love and inviting you to explore and experience places beyond.

Breaking ground this year, the 1.8-mile Acme Connector Trail will provide the critical infrastructure for you to do just that. Extending from the current TART terminus at Bunker Hill Road, residents and visitors alike will be able to safely access Acme Township businesses, existing trails, and recreation opportunities. This trail also functions as the southernmost section of the Nakwema Trailway— a generational asset that connects each community it runs through to more than twenty-five natural areas and seven townships.

Visualize a transportation and recreation loop that provides a non-motorized connection that has not formally existed before. It lies engulfed by the beauty of a northern Michigan inland lake, glistening with sailboats, kayakers, anglers, and birders. Just to the south of the heart of downtown, you can access the Boardman Lake Loop Trail and easily connect to the Eighth Street businesses, the library, Photo Credit: Prein&Newhof Oryana, Medalie Park, and NMC’s University Center. To the north, you can hop onto the TART to take you to crystal blue beaches, east to the Vasa, west to the Leelanau Trail, and south to the natural surface Boardman River Trail where you will feel miles away from the hustle and bustle of town, though it is right in our very own backyard.

This vision is close to reality. Construction crews have been working continuously on the southernmost and final section since the completion of the section between 14th Street and NMC University Center last summer. We are looking forward to celebrating its completion with you this summer!

The NMC community is thrilled to have the Boardman Lake Loop Trail] in our beautiful backyard along Boardman Lake now. The connectivity for our students and lifelong learners between NMC campuses and our greater community is such a tremendous asset! I’ll be cheering on all the ambitious walkers, runners, and bikers heading out on the trail from our new foundation office in the University Center building!”

ANNUAL REPORT I OCTOBER 1, 2020 — SEPTEMBER 30, 2021

Picture a multi-use trail, an extension of the arterial, running north and south and benefiting commuters, visitors and students alike. Currently, the northern end of the Three Mile Trail connects East Bay Township from the Traverse City State Park waterfront to South Airport Road. The nearly two-mile planned extension from the trail terminus at South Airport to Hammond will directly link thousands of students to four different schools, with another four schools on the periphery. This once unwalkable, unbikeable, heavily trafficked corridor will now connect trail users to area recreation facilities, grocery stores, schools, a library, town hall, and incredible natural areas.

At the center of this corridor, the keystone of the passageway lies the 200+ acre Mitchell Creek Meadows Nature Preserve, a Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy property. The trail extension through these uplands, lowlands, forested areas, and creek crossings will transport trail users from an urban setting into an outdoor recreation sanctuary. This stunning preserve is packed with ecological significance and passive recreational potential.

The common theme among these three trail projects is the critical community connections they provide. They offer access to the natural world as they traverse the beauty that surrounds this region. They provide the respite that we require to clear our minds and open our hearts and they lead us to what we love: our families, and our community.

The Safe Routes to Schools extension of the TART Trail system will go through the heart of GTRLC's Mitchell Creek Meadows Nature Preserve, a spectacularly diverse natural area. Students and families will enjoy passing through this urban oasis with woods, meadows, streams and wildlife viewing opportunities.

The trail will be further enhanced due to its proximity to the Conservancy's future Conservation Center, under construction today, and set to open in 2023. We are so proud to be partnering with TART and East Bay Township on improving access to nature in one of the fastest growing communities in Michigan and in an area with so many neighborhoods and schools."

ANNUAL REPORT I OCTOBER 1, 2020 — SEPTEMBER 30, 2021

Collaboration is the Key to Unlocking Transformational Change The progress on projects that we celebrate today, in each and every phase, is the direct result of homegrown collaboration. We are mobilizing partnerships to implement immediate and impactful connections between neighborhoods, parks, natural areas, schools, and local businesses.

An example of powerful partnerships in practice is the Three Mile Trail Extension Project. Thanks to the quick-acting Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy, the 2019 purchase of the Mitchell Creek Meadows Nature Preserve property provides the missing link for partners at TART Trails, East Bay Township, Norte, and the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy to get to work on the design and engineering of the long-planned extension. These powerhouses came together with ideas, resources, and expertise to accomplish a shared vision of access and connectivity. This vital non-motorized connection will improve the lives of thousands of residents and create a trail experience unlike any other in the area.

Imagine weaving through the lush cedar forest and rolling along a woodland creek while going to school, commuting to work, or simply exploring. This experience will soon be possible for everyone. The Norte staff is thrilled. We have walked the property, and it is diverse and lovely. Collaborating on projects like the Three Mile Trail with TART, the Land Conservancy, and the community is how we make lasting progress.”

— JILL SILL, NORTE INTERIM EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR The 100+ mile TART Trails network boasts an abundance of natural surface paths thanks in large part to our partnership with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. The origins of this relationship go back long before the formation of the TART Trails organization. The well-known and much-loved Vasa Pathway in the Pere Marquette Forest is a year-round destination for cross-country skiers, runners, hikers, mountain bikers, walkers, and naturalists. Owned by the state of Michigan, and managed for grooming by TART Trails, this state land hosts over 30,000 visits a year.

In addition to collaborating with partners to expand our non-motorized trail network, we also work continuously to make sure what is currently on the ground remains well-maintained and in good health. Last year, we made significant improvements to the thirty-year-old Traverse Area Recreational Trail between Airport Access and Three Mile Roads. We surveyed trail users and followed the data collected. What it told us was that 30% of the 300,000 visits per year were by commuters—people going to school, work, the grocery store, and places they needed to be. The aged and crumbling trail was essential to their lifestyle. Thanks to our government partners at the City of Traverse City, East Bay Township, Grand Traverse County, and Grand Traverse County Road Commission for recognizing the need for improvement, we widened and repaved the infrastructure and beautified the corridor. Commuters and visitors alike now enjoy a smoother and safer ride on their journey.

The desire to turn our well-traveled trails and pathways into more than just a way to get to your destination was the inspiration for our Art on the TART program. This placemaking program focuses on transforming our shared public spaces to strengthen the connections between people and these places. Art on the TART features artworks in multiple disciplines and includes year-round public art installations as well as temporary exhibitions and community art. Art on the TART collaborates with community partners to make art accessible to all and engage trail users in thoughtful aesthetic expression. Pieces in the collection illustrate the rich cultural identity of northwest Lower Michigan and speak to the natural setting of the region.

I see the partnership between TART and the [Traverse City] Arts Commission as bringing together separate, but closely related, strategies for bolstering mental & cultural health—two squares that make up the vibrant quilt of our region, if you will. Both public art & public trail access add enormous value to the cultural, aesthetic, and economic vitality of a community—contributing to this community's identity, fostering community pride and a sense of belonging."

Meeting Increased Demand

An investment in trails is an investment in community, in people, in health, in local economic development, and in our future. We have seen firsthand how your investment in trails over the years is paying off in profound ways.

It has been well documented that since the start of the pandemic, trail use has significantly increased as people took to all things outdoors. Just talk to your local bike shop owner or outfitter and they will share their challenge of keeping shelves stocked with the goods to help people get out and get active. While the start of the pandemic accelerated trail use, there does not seem to be any slow down in activity. If anything, the trend continues as people bring family and friends along the journey to better health and fresh air adventures. And so much of what folks are out enjoying is thanks to the network of trails in our area.

With your support, we will be breaking ground on the Acme Connector Trail this spring that will provide important community connections and be the springboard for further trail development northward to Elk Rapids and eventually to Charlevoix as part of the Nakwema Trailway project.

Additionally, we are eyeing significant trail expansion and improvement opportunities along the Bayfront in Traverse City as that portion of the trail sees millions of visitors each year due to its popularity among locals and visitors. These connections are designed to make it easier to get around on foot or by bike, whether you are out for a recreational stroll or on your way to an important work meeting.

At MDOT, we are committed to providing mobility options for all, and we are privileged to have relationships with TART Trails and other organizations across the state that share our purpose. Not only do TART and other trail networks provide myriad recreational and health benefits, they are an ever-growing contributor to our state’s economy.”

— PAUL AJEGBA, DIRECTOR: MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Additional investments made in the trail network years ago are paying off with year-round use. Winter months can challenge even the hardiest of souls to venture out on the coldest of days, but thanks to years of commitment to snow removal on the TART and grooming on the Vasa, Leelanau and now Muncie Lakes Trails, winter trail use continues to provide ways for us to stay active in all four seasons.

With an eye towards the future, we’re continuing to map out plans to reach places like Blair Township and opening the doors for better connectivity in some of our local communities that are ready to support trails due to the benefits they bring. We’re working on active transportation plans that complement the trails and make those important connections between neighborhoods in downtown Traverse City and across the region.

Due to an increase in activity on the Leelanau Trail, generous donors stepped up to help us add a new parking lot at the Shady Lane road crossing. The new parking lot and kiosk have been an instant hit and are helping alleviate some of the pressures at Fouch Road and Fourth Street trailheads. The new Shady Lane trailhead, equipped with benches and enhanced with public art, provides safe and convenient access for more people to get on the trail all year-round. Other improvements this past year include repaving and widening the TART to allow for a smoother ride and accommodate more users, and improving the TART and Leelanau connector between the Larkin Group building and Carter Road to address drainage issues.

COMMUNITY BENEFITS OF TRAILS Trails are not just recreational amenities that provide a few people with a chance to bike, walk, run, and ski. Health care professionals, business leaders, and the users themselves believe these trails help define the area and give the Traverse region a sense of being an active community. Tangible benefits include:

TRAILS FOR ALL In an era where the dominant narrative is all too often focused on our differences, trails have a special way of bringing people together. TART Trails is committed to making the trail network a place for everyone and creating an environment where all people are made to feel welcome.

The first collaboration between TART Trails and Northern Michigan E3 centered on the Juneteenth event at F&M Park. This gathering of community members was a place to recognize history while envisioning the future of the region. Both organizations fully understand the value and need to build infrastructure and opportunities that connect people and communities to each other. And both organizations also recognize that not everyone has historically had the same access to mobility, public spaces, and encouragement to be outside. It was a natural partnership for us to seek chances to collaborate when possible, which was again actualized during the MLK Day of Volunteering when TART joined E3 in building a better region together."

SMART COMMUTE

As work continues to expand and improve your trail network, there is renewed effort to to integrate best practices for justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion into institutional values, policies, and programs.

Diversity on the trails is an important reflection of this community’s work to support folks from all walks of life. No matter who you are or where you come from, the trails are yours to enjoy freely and safely.

In that same regard, we acknowledge that all of the trails that make up the TART Trails network, now and in the future, exist on the ancestral lands of the Anishinaabe people who are today represented by the nations of the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians and the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians.

One of the many benefits of trails is the impact they have on local communities and culture. Places with easy access to non-motorized trails have a heightened sense of outdoor spirit and a greater likelihood of people getting outside on a regular basis. In the past twenty years, over 100 miles of community trails in our area have been established, thanks to the partnerships and collaboration of people working together on a common mission.

Together, we are using our diversity as a strength towards building common ground, getting more people outside and active, honoring our cultural heritage and offering access to all.

GOING CLEAN, GOING GREEN Surveys along the Traverse Area Recreational Trail have shown a steady increase in the number of people using the trails for transportation purposes such as a daily commute to work, trips to the store, visits to the library and occasions when they would otherwise drive the car.

Bicycle infrastructure and walkable communities are identified globally as ways to help lessen our carbon footprint and make it easier for people to choose alternative ways to get around. With more places for walkers and cyclists to go, the more people will get around on bike and by foot. It’s a positive feedback loop leading to healthier communities and a healthier planet.

10

Not only is your support for trails helping provide community health and economic benefits now, but you are investing in the Traverse region’s transition to lower carbon emissions in the future.

THE SLEEPING BEAR HERITAGE TRAIL: EXPANDING THE EXPERIENCE TO THE NORTH The Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail is a treasure for the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, and for all of Leelanau County. The usage of this beloved legacy Trail will continue to increase for many future generations to come. The Trail unites communities, businesses, non-profits, and provides recreational opportunities for users of all ages and abilities."

— GEORGE AND CAROL QUARDERER

traversetrails.org

Trail design and engineering is underway for the next phase of the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail from its current endpoint at Bohemian Road north to Good Harbor Trail. This nearly-five-mile stretch will provide non-motorized access to some of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore’s most impressive landscapes.

Heritage Trail visits once again set records with over 88,000 people taking to the trail. Locals and visitors alike were able to enjoy the National Lakeshore in a new way that gets them out of the car and right into the wonders of the dunes, woodlands, and panoramic lake views.

Of course, no trail comes to life without the power of partnerships. Collaboration with the Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes, National Park Service, Michigan Department of Transportation and Networks Northwest is the bedrock of this trail. Together, we’re building a new way to connect to the places we treasure and preserve the places we love.
