October 21, 2017
Lightning and downpouring rain greeted trail runners as they arrived at Essex Park on Saturday morning, October 21 for the Tour de Essex trail run. The rain ended a few minutes before the race start providing runners with an enjoyable run under cloudy skies and 58 degree temps. The course, soft and slippery in spots due to the rain, covered 7.45 K of the Essex Park trail system.

Closure of Cascade Creek Bike Trail
The city will be repairing the steel pilings on the two Civic Center Drive NW bridges over Cascade Creek. The work is scheduled to begin the week of October 9th and will be completed by the end of October.
The last section of the Douglas Trail (about 1 mile south of Pine Island, is currently closed due to new construction). You will either need to cross through the mud, or backtrack to the nearest gravel road to get around this construction.
