In the age of the Internet, there’s something decidedly charming about disseminating information via an old-fashioned bulletin board. That’s Friends of Northaven Trail’s (FoNT) plan for 2016.

The organization recently installed two wooden “kiosks” along the trail. They’re located, respectively, at the Edgmere and St. Michaels intersections. Both kiosks feature park benches and bulletin boards, upon which FoNT will post flyers announcing special events and volunteer opportunities. (Don’t worry, the nonprofit will maintain its website, Facebook page and Twitter account, too.)

For now, to avoid violating city code, trail goers should refrain from posting flyers of their own. FoNT board members will meet later this month discuss what sort of posters are acceptable. Stay tuned!

Fun fact: The kiosks were built by hand by volunteers. Councilman Lee Kleinman and our neighbor, Glen Neal, spearheaded the construction efforts.
