Owen County SWCD is one of the founding partners that helped establish the MYPath Trail System. MYPath is a network of safe sidewalks and multi-use trails that seeks to connect the YMCA on the west side of Spencer, Indiana with McCormick’s Creek State Park on the east.
The trail system runs directly adjacent to our office across the bridge south of Spencer. When you’re on the trail, please stop in and say “Hi!”
Kyle Hannon (pictured above) is the MYPath Trail Systems Coordinator. To meet Kyle and the other MYPath members please join us for the weekly Wednesday Walk, every Wednesday, 10:00am at the Riverfront Trailhead – 788 Pottersville Road Spencer, Indiana, next to the Soil and Water Conservation District Office. The trail is free and open to the public, so you can visit the trail any time, during daylight hours.
More information about MYPath, including membership as a Friend of MYPath and volunteer opportunities are available on their website: www.mypathtrail.org

Updates, activities and events are posted on the MYPath Trail Facebook page.
The MYPath Trail brings visitors near the Owen County SWCD office, the Bottomland Forest Ecological Restoration Site, and the New Meadow project. MYPath and Owen County SWCD look forward to future development of this trail.
