The Kandi Trail Riders Club has completed 4.5 miles of mountain bike trail.   KTR welcomes volunteers to assist with  trail construction and maintenance.   Please contact the PWELC office if you would like to assist with mountain bike trails and programs. 

The new 7.9kw solar array on the pavilion has been completed and is putting power out onto the grid.   Thanks to our Prairie Stars Fund-a-Need donors!   Be sure to check it out when you hit the ski trails this winter.  The recent solar addition brings us up to 40KW total capacity with a combination of wind and solar.  We love sunny and windy days.  Thanks to MNSolar for fitting us in to the work schedule before the end of the year!
