A number of personal memorial plaques have been stolen from benches placed along the Steel Valley Trail section of the GAP Trail. They were forcibly ripped from their mounting screws. Another example of societal degradation. May those honored by those plaques continue to be remembered and rest in peace.

I’m told that the Steel Valley Trail Council has already ordered replacements. Kudos to the Council for their prompt reaction to this unfortunate occurrence.
