The Friends of Lake Darling State Park have received a grant in the amount of $25,000. from the Frank and Ina Brinton Educational and Charitable Trust.
This grant will be used toward an educational pathway connecting the Four-Season Cabins, currently under construction, to the Lodge and beach. The one-quarter-mile concrete hiking trail addition will offer a self-guided tour of J. N.?Ding? Darling?s life as conservationist and cartoonist, and his call for land stewardship, a model for the exemplary soil and water conservation efforts of landowners in the Lake Darling Watershed.
Planned for 2016 ? 2017, the Friends latest project is currently in the development and funding phase. The Four-Season Cabins Project funding was assisted by a 2014 Brinton Educational and Charitable Grant of $30,000. awarded to the Friends of Lake Darling.
