    �Passing on your left� is only one example of a safety rule to
    use while on the all purpose trails in Cleveland Metroparks.



    Shared use of the all purpose trails prompted Cleveland
    Metroparks to partner with Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CNVP) to
    inform and educate users on the Towpath Trails during the Safe
    is Sound
    summer campaign.   



    The Safe is Sound campaign highlights public attention
    for the need for cyclists to give an audible signal when passing.
    Now through Saturday, September 4, park visitors will see safety
    stops along the Towpath Trail in Ohio & Erie Canal Reservation,
    helping visitors to be safe with personal coaching
    tips.               



    Ranger Chief Greg Loftus states, �Cleveland Metroparks Rangers
    and volunteers look forward to this opportunity to inform and
    educate park visitors on trail safety.�



    The following messages are being encouraged for users of all
    ages while hiking, walking or cycling on the Towpath Trail and any
    all purpose trail in the Park District: Wear a Helmet, Be Bright,
    Stay on the Right, Take Breaks to the Side of the Trail, Slow Down,
    Single File, and Do Not Block the Trail. 



    For a list of the stops scheduled in Cleveland Metroparks, visit
    "http://www.clemetparks.com/">www.clevelandmetroparks.com, then
    click on �about us,' �rangers,' and �latest news.'



    Enjoy the trails safely and soundly in Cleveland
    Metroparks - part of your life, naturally!
