BVCF News
 
The Bigfork RiverWalk Trail has become a reality.
Seven years ago, the idea of a recreational trail along the Big Fork and Rice rivers first received
public support.
Over a million dollars was raised and the trail was completed in the summer of 2016. The trail is currently open
and completely usable but there will be some minor finishing work in 2017.
The bituminous trail will handle all kinds of non-motorized use from walking to wheelchairs,
and will be plowed for use in the winter.
Partners in developing the project include Bigfork Valley Community Foundation,
Itasca County, City of Bigfork, Bigfork Valley Hospital, ISD 318, Northern Itasca Joint
Powers Board, Minnesota Highway 38 Leadership Board and local community members.
United Way of 1,000 Lakes and the Grand Rapids Area Community Foundation have an established an Itasca Area Community Response Fund. These funds are separate from the Bigfork Valley Community Foundation’s two COVID-19 Response Funds that were established for the BVCF Giving Area (Community) and for Bigfork Valley Hospital.
The pandemic is impacting nonprofits in many ways, including increased demand for services, lost revenue due to closures and cancellations, as well as other challenges. Funds raised will help aid agencies providing local COVID-19 relief services, including access to food, health-related services, support learning, and child care services, to name a few.
