Clark County nature preserve gets $600,000 November 20, 2009 4:01 AM
FRANKFORT, Ky.
Trails at a Clark County nature preserve will get a makeover thanks to a $600,000 federal grant.
Gov. Steve Beshear announced the funding on Wednesday for Lower Howard's Creek Nature and Heritage Preserve.
The area near Boonesborough State Park was a center of pioneer industry during Kentucky's settlement era.
The federal funds will be combined with $120,000 from Clark County Fiscal Court to repair and clear 2.1 miles of pioneer roads that will be used as foot trails.
The project also involves the reconstruction of 600 yards of stone fences.
