肯尼斯·J. Lehman Nature Trails
The 肯尼斯·J. Lehman Nature Trails are located on MCC’s 西德尼 campus. They are open to the public from dawn until dusk, 365 days a year. More than four miles of trails are marked with numbered trail posts, and maps are available at most major trail heads. There is no charge to visit these beautiful trails, which wind through forests, grasslands and wetlands. In addition, a 阀瓣 golf course is open and free to use. Course maps and score sheets are available at the 娱乐 Desk in the Activities Building or at Hole No. 1, located between the tennis courts and College Drive. 阀瓣s are available to rent at MCC’s 娱乐 Desk.
The MCC Nature Trails Committee welcomes new members. The committee meets four to six times per year and provides direction on upcoming projects.
