2010 is the 20th anniversary of the Katy Trail. A week long celebration is in the works for June 2010 to celebrate! The communities along the trail are being encouraged to get involved and host events that would make the treasure that the Katy already is even better! If anyone has any suggestions that we could do to make this event a success I would love to hear them.

We can hope that St Charles to Machens is completed in time to celebrate the 20th anniversary.

Right....we can also hope that the Grand Opening of the KC to Windsor leg is part of that 20th anniversary celebration.

Does the week you are referencing coincide with the week of the annual DNR ride?

The 20th anniversary actually encompasses from May 28 to June 20. This would incorporate
towns along the entire Katy trail to participate with an existing event or one they just do for
2010. This all leads up to the Katy Trail Ride which starts on June 21st. It would be art,
music, cultural or anything a community would like to do become part of this event. We are
hoping that a lot of riders would plan a trip during this time frame to come to Missouri and
the trail.

The Event committee of the Katy Trails Merchants and Communities organization is trying to come up with a name for the 20th anniversary of the Katy Trail celebration. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm thinking out loud here, but I was thinking of the y2k thing several years back, and came up with KT2X.

How about "Katy Trail 20th Anniversary"

How about naming it 20th Anniversary of the Katy Trail Celebration?
