Trail Patches

Hiking enthusiasts who have completed the Quinnipiac Trail, the Metacomet Trail, or the Mattabesett Trail from start to finish can apply to Connecticut Forest & Park Association (CFPA) for a free commemorative patch suitable for affixing to a jacket, vest, backpack, or hat. To be eligible, simply provide the name of the trail and the dates you hiked it, giving separate dates for each section finished, as listed in the Connecticut Walk Book, 19th edition. It is not necessary to complete the trail on consecutive hikes; the journey can span a time period of several months or years.

Please fill out the attached form and send it to CFPA, 16 Meriden Road, Rockfall, CT 06481 or email it to info at ctwoodlands dot org. Include $1.00 for each patch requested to defray postage and handling costs.

Additional tax-deductible contributions are welcome. If you want your donation to be deposited in the John E. Hibbard Trust for Land & Trails (a separate CFPA fund specifically for trail and land protection), please write Hibbard Trust on your check.
