Because of her location, her focus will mostly be on opportunities in  Simcoe County. Claudia is an avid hiker, biker, paddler and skier, and has some  previous experience with trade booths at trade fairs. If you have any  suggestions for Claudia, you can reach her at <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:cjaspert@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\">cjaspert@gmail.com<\/a> Note: I will continue to post  Ganaraska Hiking Trail related information on the association&#8217;s Facebook  page.\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GanaraskaHikingTrailAssociation\/?modal=admin_todo_tour\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GanaraskaHikingTrailAssociation\/?modal=admin_todo_tour<\/a><br><br><br><br><strong>Sharon Striegl,<\/strong> also a member of  the Midland club, but who also hikes, bikes and paddles with other Ganaraska  clubs, has agreed to take on the role of <strong>Mad  River Club President.\u00a0 <\/strong>Earlier this year, we had announced that Laura and  John Giffin of Glen Huron had accepted the role of co-presidents of the Mad  River club, but unfortunately, due to time commitments related to their  business, they have had to resign. We are fortunate, however, to have Sharon  Striegl step up to the plate. Sharon owns property in Glencairn, along the route  of the Ganaraska Hiking Trail. Last spring, a significant road section north of  Glencairn was taken off road and relocated onto her land, which is rented out as  a Christmas tree farm. One immediate focus will be the maintenance of the Mad  River section of our trail, which is in desperate need of some trail maintenance  (it has not been done since 2015). Until such time as the Mad River section has  received its much needed TLC, we have decided to actually close it, mainly for  liability reasons.\u00a0 We hope that some of the neighbouring local clubs will help  the Mad River club which only has 8 members, to bring the trail back up to  par.\u00a0 Sharon can be reached at <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:striegl01@hotmail.com\" target=\"_blank\">striegl01@hotmail.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br> 2020 is certainly looking like an exciting year! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br> Frieda  Baldwin &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; President &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 705-245-1005  &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Ganaraska Hiking Trail Association Inc. &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ganaraska Hiking Trail Association Inc. is pleased to make the following 2 announcements, which will be ratified at our&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2025","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ghta","post-archive"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2025","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2025"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2025\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2028,"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2025\/revisions\/2028"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2025"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2025"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ganaraska-hiking-trail.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2025"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
