Incoming Club President Brad Jenson launched the first-ever Harbortown Hikers event, inviting members, spouses, and potential new Rotarians to explore Duluth’s world-renowned hiking trails. The outing was more than just a scenic stroll—it was a chance to connect through Rotary fellowship in the great outdoors.
The very next evening, a dozen enthusiastic Harbortown Rotarians teamed up with our Duluth Bike Fest partners, COGGS (Cyclists of Gitchee Gumi Shores), for hands-on trail maintenance. The group focused on a mile-long stretch of premier mountain biking trail, discovering and repairing a hidden hazard—a hole under the edge of a bridge that posed a serious safety risk. Thanks to their efforts, the trail remains safe, beautiful, and ready for riders.
The impact? A safer, more sustainable trail for the entire community and visitors to enjoy. This project was a perfect blend of collaboration, service, and fun—just the way we like it in Harbortown Rotary!
