The Yakima Greenway is about to begin an update of its current Master Plan. It is vital that City and County officials along with members from the Yakima community participate in this process The Yakima Greenway serves as the "backyard" for so many in our community. We feel that a learning session about the Greenway, its past and its future, will provide an excellent opportunity for discussion and visioning as we continue to conserve, pressure and protect this irreplaceable asset of our valley. We hope you will accept this invitation and look forward to discussing a date that will be compatible with your schedules. Respectfully, Kellie Connaughton, Executive Director Yakima Greenway Foundation
