Community Partners

Working together

The 3,400-member-strong Parks & Trails Council has worked in partnership with more than 100 community groups to make the case for necessary and smart investments in park and trail systems throughout Minnesota.

  • Be featured in and/or share information with Minnesota Trails magazine readers
  • Learn about Parks & Trails Council-sponsored workshops. These workshops link people who are working on park and trail issues throughout Minnesota, facilitate the development of new Friends groups, and strengthen existing groups through networking and education. Workshops provide the latest information about issues of statewide significance that have local impacts and the tools needed to make your local projects a reality.
  • Offer your members Parks & Trails Council memberships at a discounted rate.
  • Be a part of the Parks & Trails Council's advocacy and legislative efforts through the Action Team.
