Friends of Centennial Trail raffle ticket winners Bill MacBride and Beth McLaughlin won respectively a kid's Specialized Strider bike, and an adult-sized Giant Boulder SE mountain bike. Proceeds from this last summer's raffle will go to help build Helena's Centennial Trail, a partially built multi-purpose path stretching from Spring Meadow Lake to the East Helena bike path.
Two bikes were donated for the FOCT raffle - a Specialized Strider bike from Great Divide Cyclery, and a Giant mountain bike from Big Sky Cyclery. Almost $900 was raised through the raffle with funds to go towards improvements to the Centennial Trail.
The Friends thank Big Sky and the Great Divide for their support, and thank all those whose raffle donations helped us move a little closer to a completed trail.

Friends of Centennial Trail
The Friends of Centennial Trail are raising funds to complete Helena’s backbone west-east walking and bicycling route. We are working with the City of Helena’s Non-Motorized Transportation Advisory Council, and Prickly Pear Land Trust.
We hope to begin construction in 2010. When the Centennial Trail is complete you'll be able to walk, run, or bicycle from Spring Meadow Lake to East Helena on automobile-free trail; or on some segments, on a safe bike route or sidewalk.
We are raising funds to complete the Centennial Trail, in part to be used as matching funds for non-motorized transportation grants. For example, your gift of $100 leverages an additional $700 federal funds match. Your donation will go a long way. Please make your check payable to the Prickly Pear Land Trust, and please note in the memo field that your gift is for the Centennial Trail Fund. You may mail your tax deductible check to:
Your gift will help complete the Centennial Trail and help make Helena, already a great place, a safer, more convenient, and more enjoyable place to walk and ride bicycles. Thank you.
