"The New Haven Park Board has for months been discussing ways to improve its park system, hoping to make facilities more attractive and ADA accessible.

"One of the biggest projects in the works is a walking trail that will meander through the park, starting near the swimming pool and heading west to Bock Field

"New Haven was approved for a Recreational Trails Program (RTP) grant from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources in the amount of $52,356 for its Phase I plan which included a pedestrian trail. Addison said a lot of the work will be done by city employees, and any in-kind work will be reimbursed to them by the state.

The trail will consist of a hard-packed, fine gravel surface similar to what is on the Katy Trail. The trail is going to circle the big, grassy field where the city’s balloon races are held and will cut across Park Drive and head into Bail Park." ~ The Missourian, 2015
