On top of this, the PTC performs the full range of activities needed to support the ODT and our organization. * These day-to-day activities include: volunteer recruitment, training, and management · recruiting, training, and deploying trail ambassadors · extensive fundraising and grant writing · conducting and supporting trail-based events · operation of a comprehensive website, digital communication network, and database exceeding 10,000 individual trail supporters · maintenance of broad-ranging social media platforms · design and publication of ten different maps and brochures · and coordination with regional and national trail organizations. As we build organizational capacity in 2026, we are laying plans to dramatically accelerate completion of the ODT, continue to expand our maintenance support, and otherwise realize our four strategic goals. * Ensuring PTC’s organizational health, resilience, and sustainability * Deepening our engagement with community members and leaders about the ODT’s value * Establishing a safe and accessible trail for current and future generations * Supporting regional trail planning and construction This will require the continued engagement of a broad range of community members and the financial resources to invest in securing land or easements, construction and maintenance of the trail system, and more.
