Mebane Trail Rangers promotes, supports and helps maintain the trails in Mebane, provides educational workshops and advocates for health and wellness in nature while partnering with our local government, the citizens of Mebane and our guests.
During the pandemic, North Carolinians turned to the great outdoors for solitude and healing. Our national, state and local parks experienced a historical increase in attendance. In 2021, the NC House of Representatives unanimously passed House Bill 554 designating 2023 as ‘Year of the Trail.’ The bill encourages special programming and festivals to celebrate the trail and honor and recognize trail caretakers. We are proud that our Representative, Mr. Ricky Hurtado was one of the sponsors of the bill. Mebane Trail Rangers is gearing up for a fun-filled 2023!
