Programs
Rails to Trails Economic Development Project: The objective is to build a non-motorized use, recreational trail on an active powerline corridor which was once a railroad bed. In prior years, we purchased 0.46 acres for the Neillsville Trailhead and Park, and 6.42 acres for the Trail. Construction of the Trailhead and Opelt Park was completed in 2024. It includes a play structure with accessible elements, adult fitness stations, a picnic shelter, an accessible bathroom, a glide swing for wheelchairs, and water access for kayaks and canoes. In 2025, construction of the packed gravel recreation trail was completed along with the construction of a Trail Rest Area along the creek with a picnic table and bench. Opelt Park and the Recreation Trail see multigenerational usage on a regular basis, attracting both families and individuals. The new Trail Rest Area attracts employees from the nearby Courthouse for their lunch breaks. Four community events were held at the Trailhead and Trail during 2025.

The organization over time
