Friends of the Red Oak Trails We are a volunteer board established to assist the City of Red Oak in planning, promoting, and helping to maintain the Red Oak Trail System.

The Friends of the Red Oak Trails is a non-profit organization that is operated by a diverse group of volunteers. We are dedicated to preserving our community's natural resources and providing trails for public use. the continued success of the Friends of Red Oak Trails depends entirely on the support of members and donors who share this goal. Why?

* 100% of the money received goes into the promotion and creation of the Red Oak Recreational Trails.

*Our efforts will not only lead to healthy recreational benefits, but to a financial return for our community as well.

*The presence of public recreational trails has been proven to increase tourism and improve a community's public image. Friends of the Red Oak Trails

Today is the day!

Trick or Treat on the Trail starts at 4:30 PM and goes until 6:30 PM. If you're not aware, this event is a great family outing with 40+ vendors from the community handing out all sorts of treats and goodies all while enjoying a segment of our trail and beautiful cemetery.

Consider dressing warm due to chilly temperatures. Start at the southwest entrance of the cemetery. Normal flow follows the numbering (counterclockwise), but feel free to go backwards (clockwise) - that might enhance the flow... or it may cause chaos... who knows! 😉😆👻👽

Looking forward to a fun evening with the community. Thank you to everyone involved.

At this time Trick or Treat on the Trail is still being hosted outdoors for Thursday. The chances of rain should clear up by 2:00 PM. IF we need to move the event indoors, we will relocate to the YMCA. If changes are made we will try to inform everyone via Facebook, Chamber, and radio.

On Saturday, October 8th the Friends of the Red Oak Trails had the honor of dedicating the George and Pat Maher "Forever Red Oak" bench alongside the family's children, grand children, and great grand children. The bench is located along the trails north of the high school field house/tennis courts. Thank you to the family's longstanding commitment to Red Oak.
