A Community
Coming Together

The Bradford Creekwalk is more than a trail — it’s a testament to what a community can achieve when united by a shared vision of preserving history and creating spaces that bring people together.

From Vision to Reality

The Bradford Creekwalk began as a simple idea: transform McDowell trail connecting downtown to the University into a vibrant recreational space that celebrates our community’s history.

"This trail isn't just about history — it's about building connections between generations, between town and campus, between past and future."
— Project Founder
