A reception will follow the ceremony at Trailside Café, 1807 Commerce St., directly across from the Park.

The Yorktown Trail Town Committee is a volunteer committee formed in September 2014 to promote the Town of Yorktown. Comprised of local residents and business owners, the committee seeks to leverage the existing network of foot/bike trails throughout town as a way of promoting sustainable economic development as well as providing greater recreational, health and social benefits to its residents and visitors.
