Free Hydration Stations

Fleet Feet Sports Fox Valley Invites Trail Users to Stay Hydrated

Appleton, WI—In partnership with the City of Appleton and Appleton Parks, Recreation, & Facilities Management, Fleet Feet Sports Fox Valley is once again offering free hydration stations to all users of the Apple Creek Trail. A new location on the Newberry Trail has also been added.

Saturday, May 3 marked the start of two summer-long Saturday morning hydration stations that will be available near the intersection of Ballard Road and Evergreen Drive and at the bottom of the hill near the Banta Bowl, underneath the College Ave Bridge. The hydration stations will be available 6:30AM until 10:30AM through September 27, 2014. All walkers, cyclists, runners, and passers-by are welcome and encouraged to take advantage of the hydration station.

Says Fleet Feet Sports Fox Valley co-Operator Leah Schapiro, “We got such great feedback from trail users last summer, we were more than happy to expand our involvement for 2014. The City of Appleton has been a great partner to work with and it allows us to encourage the community to take advantage of the amazing trail system offered here in the Fox Valley.” Leah also reminds outdoor enthusiasts that, “thirst is not an indicator of dehydration. Once you are thirsty, you are already low on fluids. If the summer is as hot as the winter was cold, we hope people will plan their routes accordingly and take advantage of the opportunity to stay hydrated.”

Users of Newberry Trail are reminded of the construction activities that will impact the trail in 2014. The segment of Newberry Trail in Telulah Park will be closed as the new Newberry Street extension is completed and a new parking lot and skate park are constructed in Telulah Park. The segment of Newberry Trail between Lawe Street and E. South River Street will also be closed from April through July as the City of Appleton repairs the retaining wall near the corner of Olde Oneida Street and E. South River Street. This segment of the trail will also be re-surfaced while it is closed for the retaining wall work.
