Congratulations to Charlie Tracy for being awarded the 2019 MassTrails Award. Charlie recently retired from the National Park Service where he was a landscape architect guiding long-distance trail development including the New England National Scenic Trail. He's also an advocate for bringing art, culture, and the outdoors together. Charlie now works with the Connecticut Trails Census where his experience and love for trails will certainly be put to good use.
