Duncan Douglas - Volunteering through the Morris Trail Partnership and NYNJTC
NYNJ Trail Walker JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2001
"Our deep gratitude to Conference member Duncan Douglas for his unflagging efforts to have 7 informational kiosks for the Farny Highlands Trails System made and installed. Duncan, president of the Morris Trails Conservancy, committed his organization and especially himself to this project which had been on our back burner for a couple of years. Conference member and Farny Highlands trail designer Bob Rooke first proposed the project, and the Morris Land Conservancy had secured a grant to assist with the costs. It took 4 months of almost daily work to get every thing done: all the approvals from the various land-managing entities, purchasing materials and supplies, encouraging the kiosk sign builder, scouting locations, digging holes for the posts, cementing the kiosks into place, and wrapping up all the paperwork. Duncan, you KNOW we couldn’t have done it without you!! Thank you so much."
Duncan continued to maintain trails in the area for many years.
