Trail Sytem

The Clovis Community Foundation is working with the Cities of Fresno and Clovis, Fresno County, the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District (FMFCD), the Fresno Irrigation District (FID) and Tree Fresno to develop a multi-purpose Parkway Plan for the Fresno-Clovis Metropolitan Area (modeled after the Clovis Old Town Trail). The plan consists of the approved bikeways in the cities of Clovis and Fresno and Fresno County, as well as possible FID irrigation canals that could accommodate trails.

The Clovis Community Foundation is coordinating this effort with the FMFCD to encourage the development of parks at recharge basins (like Oso D'Oro Park at Forkner and Barstow in Fresno) adjacent to these trails. The goal is to connect FMFCD recreational sites with a network of over 200 miles of urban trails in the Fresno-Clovis Metropolitan Area.

The City of Clovis has installed a new bicycle repair station on the Clovis Old Town Trail, south of Sierra Vista Mall. The equipment was paid for in part by Kaiser Permanente and the Clovis Community Foundation.

On September 8, 2015, Mayor Nathan Magsig presided over the opening of the newest addition to the Clovis Old Town Trail -- exercise equipment along the trail at Clovis and Gettysburg Avenues, paid for by a generous gift by Kaiser Permanente.  The Clovis Community Foundation donated almost $10,000 in lighting to provide a more pleasant, safe and secure experience for its users.
