Overview
Preparing the Trail will develop our online Plant it-Forward-Project (PiFP). In the fall of 2010 we will develop a mobile smartphone application that will allow our team of environmentally active athletes and green followers to post photos of planted trees, and automatically post these planted trees to a custom Google Map to virtually watch our trees grow! These trees are then posted for adoption by other community supporters across Canada.

1. Improving the Health of our Communities by Greening & Participating in Outdoor Athletic Events
