GREENE TRAILS CLASSIC BLURB
Geared towards bicycles--but INLINE SKATES WELCOME! I did this last year and LOVED it! If you
cannot come for all 4 days, you can register for the days you can attend. Centered in Xenia, OH.
Go a different direction each day. Kayaking and canoeing also an option!
The people who ran this event were fantastic and VERY FRIENDLY. Very much a "family" event. Camp
at the County Fairgrounds (included in the registration!) and there is a GREAT POOL there as well!
Please get the word out about this event! Registration is open NOW. www.greenetrailsclassic.com
