Starke County Park Board Hopes to Discuss Erie Trail Lease with Hoosier Valley Railroad Museum

The Starke County Park Board may consider taking over the operation of the North Judson Erie Trail. The facility is owned by the Hoosier Valley Railroad Museum. Starke County’s five-year park plan suggests that the county lease it. The goal is to improve trail maintenance, as well as access to grant funding for further expansion and improvement.

During Tuesday’s meeting, Park Board President Debbie Mix agreed to write a letter to the museum to see if they’d be interested in discussing such an arrangement.
