Rail Trail Project
To commemorate
the 100 year anniversary of Rotary, the Los Banos Rotary Club purchased 100 trees
and donated them to the Rail Trail project in the City of Los Banos. The project
is an evolving park-like setting that spans two miles of what used to be a railroad
line that traveled through town.
The property was purchased by the city
and a grant was secured to create a Rail Trail complete with a walking/bicycle
path, trees, benches, lights, etc.
Each tree was priced at $25, so the $2,500
project, in five to ten years will help provide shade for those walkers.
