President's Message
PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE th Our 30 Anniversary Annual Meeting and Dinner Forty-six people attended our Connecticut Section Annual Dinner and Meeting at the Cheshire Grange on March 20. Thanks to everyone who attended, and to Ken Williamson for arranging to make the dinner a success. The Grange's roast beef and vegetarian lasagna were excellent once again. During the annual meeting, Jack Sanga was elected as Treasurer, replacing John Bensenhaver, who performed admirably for 5 years. We thanked John, and outgoing director George Andrews, now living in Boynton Beach, Florida, for their service. Connecticut Section Service Awards, recognizing members who serve as activity leaders and officers, went to Arlene Rivard, Bob Schoff, and Ken Williamson. After the meeting, Marjorie Nichols of Lebanon gave a great slide presentation of her trip to the Swiss and Italian Alps. Thanks to Marge Hackbarth for securing Marjorie's services on short notice. Trail Maintenance VP for Trails and Shelters Dick Krompegal has scheduled the first trip to Kid Gore Shelter on the Long Trail for the weekend of May 21-23. This is a great opportunity to hike into the heart of our Long Trail section and get the trail ready for the summer season. The first work trip to Story Spring Shelter, just 0.7 miles from the road, is planned for June 18-20. Participating in a Long Trail work weekend has multiple benefits. In addition to the satisfaction of giving time and energy back to the trail system, and the camaraderie of other GMC members , every hour of volunteer labor on the Long/Appalachian Trail adds to the level of federal government funding for the A.T. -

Fall 2004 Intrepid Hikers Raise Money for Meshomasic Land Preservation On October 17 three members of the Meshomasic Hiking Club hiked 45 miles on the Airline Trail to raise money and awareness for the need to protect the Meshomasic Forest Landscape. This area, designated by The Nature Conservancy as one of Connecticut's Last Great Places, includes portions of Portland and East Hampton here in northern Middlesex County. The Meshomasic Forest Landscape spans seven towns in three counties from Portland’s Great Hill Pond to Manchester’s Case Mountain. Among the important natural features of the area are Meshomasic State Forest, New England’s oldest state forest, Gay City State Park, Meshomasic (a Native American word meaning the place of many snakes) and Kongscut Mountain, as well as the watersheds of the Connecticut River, Wangunk Meadows and the Salmon River. In order to further protection of this large forest block and its diverse wildlife, in September 2003 The Middlesex Land Trust created Meshomasic Forever Paula Rose Wild, a fund to support acquisition of private parcels in Hikers George Rolland, John LeShane, and Chuck Bernstein and around Meshomasic State Forest. Funds raised by (left to right) bask in the glory of their completed 45 mile hike. the hikers will match a challenge grant from The Peter Jay Sharp Foundation.

Connecticut State Parks System
A Centennial Overview 1913-2013 www.ct.gov/deep/stateparks A State Park Centennial Message from Energy and Environmental Protection Commissioner Robert J. Klee Dear Friends, This year, we are celebrating the Centennial of the Connecticut State Parks system. Marking the 100th anniversary of our parks is a fitting way to pay tribute to past conservation-minded leaders of our state, who had the foresight to begin setting aside important and scenic lands for public access and enjoyment. It is also a perfect moment to commit ourselves to the future of our park system – and to providing first-class outdoor recreation opportunities for our residents and visitors well into the future. Our park system had humble beginnings. A six-member State Park Commission was formed by then Governor Simeon Baldwin in 1913. One year later the Commission purchased its first land, about four acres in Westport for what would become Sherwood Island State Park. Today, thanks to the dedication and commitment of many who have worked in the state park system over the last century, Connecticut boasts a park system of which we can all be proud. This system includes 107 locations, meaning there is a park close to home no matter where you live. Our parks cover more than 32,500 acres and now host more than eight million visitors a year – and have hosted a remarkable total of more than 450 million visitors since we first began counting in 1919. Looking beyond the statistics, our parks offer fantastic opportunities for families to spend time outdoors together. They feature swimming, boating, hiking, picnicking, camping, fishing – or simply the chance to enjoy the world of nature. -

CT Hiking Trails
CFPA Trails & The Blue Trails Challenge CT Forest & Parks Association Trails 2006 – “There are well over 800 miles of blue-blazed hiking trails in many different towns in little ol’ Connecticut. A 52 mile section of the Appalachian Trail also cuts across the Northwest corner of the state. Sleeping Giant State Park Much of that is still true. I’d guess the CFPA trail network is closer to 1,000 miles now though, especially with the completion of the East-West Trail looming. And the AT is closer to 57 miles now. The CFPA will be releasing a new Walk Book in 2017 and have, of course, put everything online as well. For decades, there existed something called the Connecticut 400 Clubwhich recognized those who have hiked all the CFPA trails of Connecticut. Since the “Club’s” inception, over 400 more miles have been added to the task, but no one bothered to update the name. This is an interesting read; a old NYT article about the CT 400 when it was only the CT 400(500) not the CT 400(900 or whaterver it is) today. Then in 2015, the CFPA changed things up and retired the Club. Now you can earn rewards by hiking various lengths of CFPA trails: 200, 400, and 800 miles. I’m okay with the change. 1 Another recent change was the designation of The New England Trail as a National Scenic Trail. This includes the Menunkatuck, Mattabessett, and Metacomet Trails in Connecticut. (It continues north through Massachusetts to New Hampshire for a total of 215 miles.) The Connecticut Forest and Parks Association not only maintains our trails wonderfully, the also fight the good fights with regards to our precious environmental resources in our small state. -
