Montgomery County, PA

 

Montgomery County understands there may be times when organizations would like to use our trails for formal activities and events, such as walks and rides.  Any organization that would like to use our trails for an organized event must first contact the park nearest to where the event will begin. (Contacts are listed below.)  All events must be registered, and organizers will need to complete a Special Use Permit Application for approval by the parks and heritage department.  A complete application package is available at our county parks and historic sites.  Applications are due a minimum of 90 days prior to your event date for approval.  The county assesses fees for Special Use Permits.

 

Event organizers are required to comply with all rules and regulations set forth by the county, and the trail should be left in as good or better condition after the event, including the removal of all trash and signs.  Please note that no events will be scheduled that preclude regular visitation to the trail or require closure of the trail or park to the general public, and no races will be permitted.  Organizations looking to use a trail for fundraising must be a registered nonprofit organization or be able to provide information that all proceeds will be donated to a nonprofit organization or agency.
