An urban winter pathway, near downtown Ottawa, where we all come together to celebrate winter and play in the snow along the great river, the Kichi Sibi. (SJAM)

@OsgoodeAPTS, our final sponsor to be thanked for the season. The trail is so much a group effort and having community minded businesses with a social conscious and desire to give back; makes it possible to offer an urban winter pathway that is free to use and welcome to all.Thx

Still a bit more social media in support of the trail to come. As we transition from winter to summer, here are some health tips to get you there; thanks to @continuumfit, one of our sponsors.

End-of-season get together by all the volunteer snow groomers throughout #myOttawa. We are now a large group and we are all passionate about making our city a better place to live and play in winter.
@KichiSibiWT @VilleDeGatineau @NCC_CCN Awesome. So presumably if we have another low snow volume winter like this year, cyclists will be able to access the WC Bridge as well and not be diverted to construction zones and roads? @somerset_ward

Together we are stronger: how empowering community groups with strong partnerships from public agencies are the key to success in building and maintaining #UrbanWinterPathways. That is the essences of my talk tonight.
From snow bears to rock art to ski trails, the creativity of the community shines through on Kichi Zībī Mīkan. Join us on our Walk & Talk & meet others who care about this special spot. Register: @siobhanwanders @KitchissippiOtt @OttawaOGL @KichiSibiWT

End-of-Season Interview with the famous Bear Lady, Maggie Glossop. Her work has brought such significant mental health benefits to our community, that it is beyond measure. We are all grateful. See you next season and may the bears sleep (hibernate) well in our imagination.

Putting snow fence away for the season; the natural circle of life for the trail. Hopefully it will have more snow to capture and retain next season because it is an enormous effort to put up and take down by our amazing team of volunteers. But it is most certainly worth it!

When deciding on how to give back, Caldwell Wealth Management Group of @RBCwealth love that the trail is multi-use and can be accessed by anyone including families, seniors, new Canadians. A great contribution to our community.

Spotted: Roller Skier in T-Shirt/Shorts - March 13, 2024. What is the world coming to? Or is he just on his rest day and staying limber between races at Ski Nationals?@CourseENGNERace @NakkertokRacing

@ChamplainPark Thank you for keeping the pile neat and tidy. It will make chipping them easier and the operators will be grateful.

It is clean up time! Sure, it is the job of the @NCC_CCN to maintain public lands of our nation's capital; but it never hurts to acknowledge their assistance in managing Xmas trees. They bring such winter cheer and colour to the Ktrail. (Oh...and that beautiful fragrance!) Thx

Our first season as our very own registered charity!! Was it easy to set up? NO!!! Was it a lot of work? YES!!! Thankfully, @MeridianCU were there to help every step of the way. Problems got resolved fast. Administrative hiccups overcome. Team work makes dream work.

Volunteers are the essential ingredient of all Urban Winter Pathways. Often times they are the silent work force, but other times they are the folks that you have come to know and love. Dr. Peter Edmison, and master of snowfence, with his final words of the season. @NCC_CCN
