Golf cart riders on the Prairie Spirit Rail Trail were treated to some awesome sites recently. As the riders traveled from Garnett Elementary north to the Pottawatomie bridge, the wildflowers along the Prairie Spirit Rail Trail were bountiful. One of the riders picked some spiderworts and said they reminded her of flowers her mother had in the yard when she was growing up. As the riders neared the Pottawatomie bridge, the entire bottom was covered with water that provided some “wows” from the riders as the carts stopped on the bridge. Water was running along the west side of the trail and 2 small waterfalls were visible.
The riders were residents from residential living center, Guest Home Estates & Parkview Heights plus several from the community. There were a total of 50 riders, in addition to the 14 drivers and the 8 volunteers who took the trip.
The event was held by the friends of the Prairie Spirit Rail Trail in coordination with the Kansas Department of Wildlife & Parks for Individuals with Physical Limitations to provide them with exposure to nature and enjoyment on the trail.
