The Pennsylvania Environmental Council announced Tuesday registration is now open for the 2013 Forks of the Ohio River Regional Trail Symposium to be held on March 8 at the Pittsburgh Marriott North, 100 Cranberry Woods Dr., Cranberry Township.

The Symposium will build on the Western PA Trail Symposia held in 2006 and 2010. Attendees will continue the dialog to make our trail system the strongest, most connected and best managed system. Stakeholders from Western Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio, Northern West Virginia and Western Maryland are encouraged to attend.

The 2013 event will bring together trail stakeholders from a wide geographic area for a thought-provoking keynote address, informative educational sessions, interactive working sessions and networking opportunities.

Symposium topics will include: completion of mega greenways, connecting to communities, developing healthy communities, planning tools and more. Space will be provided for organizations to display and share information with attendees. Display tables are offered at no cost to non-profit organizations.
