Thanks Duane, Makes me wonder if anyone at WVU is connecting health of community with projects such as the work in Preston County? I believe programs that improve access to recreation are directly tied to community health. Looking at measures related to specific health indicators including QOL, etc... would reinforce the health benefits. Thanks again for sharing, Sam
