Your donation today will be set aside for construction of the Riverside Connection.
Why is the Riverside Connection important?
The Riverside Connection is a critical off-road link that will connect existing and future off-road trails, north and south, on both sides of the Merrimack River, from Penacook to Terrill Park.
Without the Riverside Connection, there would be a gap and trail users would have to mix with busy traffic on Gully Hill Road. We want the MRGT to be family friendly and kid safe!
Why is your donation important?
Unlike previous sections of the MRGT, there are no grants available for the Riverside Connection and there are no funds earmarked in the City’s budget. Your donation will help fill that funding gap.
Why is it important that you donate today?
Early donations will give us a head start on design and permitting. Your donation TODAY will enable us to take advantage of an opportunity to build the Riverside Connection in 2025 under an open existing construction contract, saving hundreds, if not thousands of dollars!
Your donation will be recognized.
All donors during this campaign will be recognized on our Riverside Connection Honor Roll. Business Donors during this campaign will be recognized on both our Riverside Connection Honor Roll and on our Business Partners page. As always, donors who have donated $50 or more since 2011 will be recognized on our Honor Roll.
That's not all!
Your contribution will not only help us reach our financial goal, but it will also demonstrate your commitment to fostering a sustainable and healthy community. By supporting the Friends of the Merrimack River Greenway Trail, you will be playing an integral role in promoting outdoor recreational activities and enhancing the quality of life for everyone in the community. Imagine the positive impact this trail will have, offering a scenic and safe route for walking, running, and cycling while connecting various parts of Concord and the greater Concord community!
To donate by check, please make it payable to Friends of the MRGT and send it to PO Box 954, Concord NH 03302.
All donations, by credit card or cash, are tax deductible.
