Daniel:
"Thanks for all the work you guys have put in. It was definitely a less usable space before all the work, and we have used all of the trails as a family soooooo much more since. It’s a wonderful space for our family, and we really enjoy it being steps from our door. "
Chris:
"My little girls love hiking and riding out there and have even learned about contributing to trail maintenance and respecting nature around the trails. These trail updates are just another reason why TC is such a great neighborhood- beautiful green spaces to enjoy and neighbors who proactively maintain and improve! "
Brittany:
"My family (including my toddler) actually loves the improvements that have been made to the wildflower preserve area! We have been out there several times. I think it’s great that our community can offer a variety of amenities "
Donna:
"I have lived in the neighborhood for over 25 years and the refurbished trails have been a great addition to the wildflower area and the neighborhood. I love it and have seen many neighbors enjoying it. It brings community together which is so valued and one of the reasons why me and my family have remained here in the neighborhood. All of the varied activities that bring people out and enjoying nature and being together. Thank you to all that helped in making it happen! It is awesome!!!! "
Erin:
"We have lived here for 17 years and have taken many a wildflower and family photos in the wildflower area. We love native plants & natural areas. We are also a family of trail runners, road and mountain bikers. I had never been in the section where the trails were refurbished before, and we have found them to be a great addition. We have been to the the little loop when it has had several families - including really little kids on balance bikes - enjoying the trail and hanging out as a family. Maybe the best of all, I comfortable letting my kids go there alone, something I am not yet comfortable with the greenbelt at large. "
Floyd:
"It is very satisfying to see all the little ones on their strider bikes and pedal bikes ripping up the trail.
It is a relatively safe, beginner friendly place for young and old alike to ride. Parents can sit at the picnic tables and keep an eye on their little ones while they burn off energy and learn skills. "
Dave:
"Our family of 5 finally found a reason to go explore the trails at the Wildflower Preserve after the recent refurbishment of the overgrown and rarely used trails that are now known as the tc flow trails. Our young children have enjoyed the hiking and biking trails and we have made many new neighborhood friends as a result. "
Leith:
"...my 12 year old daughter overcame here fear of biking by practicing in that little loop that was created. "
Chris:
"We are a family of four who love all outdoor activities, including hiking, biking and trail running. We have lived here 17 years. The proximity to the greenbelt was a big draw of the neighborhood. We have our yearly picture of the kids in the bluebonnets. The recent improvements to the nature trails at the wildflower preserve has added to our enjoyment. I love seeing families and kids of all ages having fun hiking or riding bikes in nature. What a great amenity for our children and community! "
Javan:
"These trails have been a breathe of fresh air for the community.
My wife, toddler and I have loved being able to this area to spend more time in nature in an area that was previously non accessible. "
Paul:
"The nice thing about having clearly marked trails is most people will stay on them instead of creating new ones and damaging large areas. Thanks to the folks who put in all the work! "
Marty:
"Feeling grateful to live in this community where nature and wild things are highly valued. Thank you to Janice and Thad and all the volunteers for making the Wildflower Preserve the special place it is. The trails are a great place for kids and kids at heart to play outside with friends and family. "
Jarred:
"...the wildflower preserve is a fantastic example of how to utilize such a beautiful space to the benefit of all. We walk our dog on the trails and my son and I ride our bikes there as well. "
Casey:
"...we all have a safe, clean, and fun area for all to use in our neighborhood. It's a great hiking, biking, or just pleasant place to enjoy nature. Most importantly, has been so special to see more families actually use this space year round. "
Robert:
"Over the last 1.5 years, I've also enjoyed seeing more families take an active role in maintaining the refreshed trails and surrounding area. It's these shared experiences that will continue to shape and extend the legacy of those who came before us. "
Nick:
We love the trails in the Wildflower preserve!
Wes:
The trails are great! ... My whole family enjoys riding bikes in that area and I know several other families that are very appreciative of the trails. We value the bike trails more so than the pools or other recreational areas. We feel it’s the best feature of TC.
Jacob:
Wonderful effort on creating this for the TC community!!!!
