The Belton Alliance will host a ceremony to dedicate the Belton Rail Trail on Thursday, May 20 at the trailhead near the Belton Library.  The ceremony will begin at 5:00.  The public is invited to attend and the trail’s name will be unveiled and major donors to the project will be acknowledged.  Local, county and state dignitaries will be present.  Following the ceremony everyone will have the opportunity to walk any portion of the trail.

Following the ceremony the the Southern Smoke Barbecue truck will be on the north end of The Square to sell plates.  Later in the evening the Combo Kings will present a concert.  The concert will be outside weather permitting.

The Rail Trail project has been under discussion for over 10 years, and work has taken place over the past three years.
