Arizona Trail Gateway Community Advisory Committee meets in Oracle

Over the past decade more and more attention has been given to the Arizona Trail. The 800 mile trail that travels from Arizona’s southern boarder with Mexico goes through the entire Copper Corridor before it makes it way through northern Arizona and  the Grand Canyon before it reaches the Utah border.

As the popularity of the trail grows so does the need for the Gateway Communities along the trail to meet, collaborate and discuss how the communities can harness the economic benefits of the trail as well as support the maintenance and development of the trail.

The ATA has formed an Arizona Trail Gateway Community advisory committee.  The advisory group meets three times a year and their Spring meeting was held in March at the Oracle Historical Society.  Trail champions from Summerhaven, Pine, Sierra Vista, Superior, Pinal County, and Kearny were all in attendance.
