Naperville Running Company Supports Snow Removal on Park Trail

Naperville Park District is pleased to announce that an eight-year partnership with Naperville Running Company will continue this winter to support snow removal on a two-mile trail in south Naperville. The trail extends from the Route 59 pedestrian bridge through Frontier Sports Complex, Ashbury Park and Ashbury Greenway to Naperville-Plainfield Road. Under the agreement, the Park District will clear the trail after a snowfall (generally when the accumulation of snow is 2 inches or more) and Naperville Running Company will reimburse the Park District for labor and materials.

“We want to thank Naperville Running Company for their long-standing support of our staff’s work in clearing a popular trail for winter running,” said Park District Executive Director Brad Wilson. “

Other trails that are maintained year-round by Naperville Park District with snow removal as needed include the Riverwalk, the DuPage River Trail between Veterans Park and DuPage River Park, and the trails at Commissioners Park, Country Lakes Park, Meadow Glens, Nike Sports Complex, Wil-O-Way Commons, Wildflower Park and Wolf’s Crossing Community Park.

Unpaved trails at parks such as Knoch Knolls Park can be used for cross country skiing or snowshoeing whenever conditions allow.
