Squannacook River Rail Trail Hosted by Fundraising Brick
|
 |
Now that the first section of the Squannacook River Rail Trail is nearly complete, we are planning to install all the Townsend donated bricks in early summer 2021, as soon as the parking area at Depot Street is complete. A number of people have asked for a final opportunity to donate a brick before we install them, so we decided to reopen this fundraiser from now until April 30, 2021. The money raised will be used to help build the rail trail in the final year of construction, 2024.
We expect the first section of the rail trail, from Depot Street to Old Meetinghouse Road in Townsend to be fully open by the end of April. We encourage everyone to come see what a great job Shepherd’s has done building this rail trail!
Use the form below to order your brick on-line, and enter your own inscription. You can also choose in which town your brick will be placed – Groton or Townsend. The bricks in Townsend will be installed in early summer 2021, and the bricks in Groton are planned to be installed in summer 2023 when the eastern end is completed. The $150 total cost of the brick is tax-deductible, since Squannacook Greenways is a 501c3.

A commemorative engraved brick from Squannacook River Rail Trail is truly a gift that keeps on giving. Unlike other fundraisers that give you one day of recognition or a small thank you package, brick fundraising gives you a lifetime of recognition. That recognition comes in the form of a laser engraved brick with your name on it, which is then combined with all the other donor bricks to be placed in our parking areas that is proudly displayed by this organization. It’s a perfect way to display your generosity to your family, friends and neighbors and make an impact in your community.
Purchase a brick through the Squannacook River Rail Trail. Engrave your brick with a special inscription to convey your love, concern, appreciation or support for people, causes, or organizations dear to you:
Remember a loved one; Honor & Remember those whom have served; Celebrate a friend or family member’s achievement; Celebration of a birth, graduation, wedding or anniversary; Mark a special date in your own life; Show support of your business, school, church or other organization. There are endless reasons and possibilities for what you inscribe on your commemorative engraved brick.
