Good news from Fond du Lac County-

From Joel Patenaude:

Despite the Fond du Lac County parks committee voting 5-0 on Dec. 6 to
allow winter ATVing on the 10-mile Eisenbahn Trail, last night the FDLC
Board voted 26-9 last night against any ATVs use of the trail, even on
a
one-year trial basis.

For it's part, the committee did kill a preposterous petition asking
for
year-round ATV access to all of the nonmotorized state trails in the
county.

So let this be a lesson: Turnout by silent sports enthusiasts can
protect trails. Thank you Fond du Lac County residents for showing us
how to make a difference.
