Trochu Centennial Trails, in partnership with the Trochu and District Agricultural Society, are excited to announce the receipt of $159,300 from the Federal Government's Heritage Legacy Grant. Crowfoot MP Kevin Sorenson reported the good news on March 24, 2011, to the Trochu Centennial Trails Committee and not only congratulated them on receiving their grant, but complimented them on the strength of their grant, further indicating that it is rare to see an application successful for the entire request. This can be seen as a testimony to the commitment that Trochu has demonstrated thus far to the project and their ability to work together to make things happen.
The Trochu Centennial Trails project is a result of the community's acceptance as an Active Creative Engaged (ACE) community in June of 2009. As part of this process, ACE brought in Ian Hill as a guest speaker in December 2009 for the ACE Community Ignite Tour. This empowered residents to participate in a consultation process, whereby a historical trail system was identified as a top priority during Communities in Bloom Community Engagement process for their new five year plan.
