Not only could LWCF be of assistance but also the RTP if there are needs for trails to access the water if you know of any city, county, state or federal agencies interested in applying for funding assistance. LWCF is for all outdoor recreational needs and of course RTP is for trails, trailhead facilities (parking, restrooms), and trailside facilities (benches, signage, trashcans, etc).
