The ongoing celebration of the National Park Service’s 100-year anniversary coincides with National Public Lands Day, and to mark the occasion a new trail linking two Civil War sites will be formally dedicated today.

An official opening of the new quarter-mile path linking the Pennsylvania Reservation at the end of Glass Street to the Sherman Reservation will be part of the Glass Street Live block party from 11 a.m.-4 p.m.

“We’re really pleased to formally dedicate and celebrate this new trail, which is the result of a partnership between the state, the city, Glass House Collective and the Southeast Conservation Corps,” said Brad Bennett, superintendent of Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park. “We’re grateful that collaboration between so many organizations helped create a new connection for this neighborhood.”
