Norman Smith, director of the museum said, "We have recently installed a new trail for visual and handicap people. There is braile on the new trail signs and a rope that runs along the trail. A wooden ball on the rope means that there is a station there and a wooden cube lets people know that there is a bench."

On Monday, October 8, 2012 at 1:00 p.m., the DCR Commissioner, Ed Lambert, will be on hand with the Vice Presodent of the Mass Audubon Society, Banks Poor, who will cut a ribbon to dedicate this new trail.
