Nov. 30, 2017: The FTLSP Membership learned that the Recreational Trails Program grant had been awarded to Taylorsville Lake State Park for the repair, maintenance, and improvements of trails at Park. The grant was for $80,000. It needs to be matched with $16,000 from cash and in-kind donations, making a total of $96,000 to be put toward the Park's trails! Thank you to Erin Lambirth (Ky. Dept. of Parks), Jodie Williams (US Dept. of Transportation) and Christy Combs (Ky. State Park Manager), for their assistance with the grant process.
The Recreational Trails Program (RTP) is funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The grant will be used in the development and maintenance of the recreational trails and trailhead facilities at Taylorsville Lake State Park. |
Work days will be forthcoming, so get onboard to help our Park! Donations are appreciated.
More details to come soon, so check back!

Membership Meeting - November 30, 2017
Great things are happening at Taylorsville Lake State Park! The Membership Meeting was a chance for members and those interested in the Park to hear what has been accomplished, future goals, and a big announcement that will be a huge stepping stone for Park improvements! Besides that, there was door prizes, a chili dinner, REALLY NICE silent auction items, and a lot of great people.
