It was a beautiful day to celebrate the opening of the Metropolitan Branch Trail from Fort Totten to Takoma!
The Metropolitan Branch Trail is more than just a bike path -- it connects us to each other, to schools and work and recreation, and to a vibrant alternative to sitting in traffic.

I joined a rally to send a clear message to Dominion Energy: our trees matter. 🌳
They must back a replanting plan for the 374 trees they cut along the W&OD Trail.
