Wednesday, Aug. 8, Rock River Trail Founder and Coordinator Frank Schier presented to Beloit’s Director of Parks & Leisure Services Brian Ramsey and Beloit’s Park, Recreation & Conservation Advisory Commission Chairperson Roger Christiansen riverside signs for a portage around the Beloit dam. The signs are gifts of the City of Rockford, which has made almost $5,000 in signs for the Rock River Trail. Special thanks to Mayor Morrissey and City of Rockford Director of Public Works Tim Hanson. The commission voted to accept the signs and write a letter of support. Thursday, Aug. 9, Schier made a presentation to the Village of Roscoe Public Works and Parks Committee asking for a letter of support. That proposal will move forward to the village board, and Village President David Krienke said the village will also erect Rock River Trail signs at Roscoe’s Riverside park for a canoe launch, boat launch and campsite area.
