Trailnet Champion: Kara Burt
In each of our monthly newsletters, Trailnet features a member of our community who is working toward Trailnet’s vision of Streets for All. In April 2024, we featured Kara Burt.
| Kara Burt grew up in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri and now manages The Audubon’s Hotel & Restaurant at the heart of historic downtown Ste. Gen. Kara was instrumental in bringing Trailnet to Ste. Gen for the inaugural StG Gravel Classic in 2022, and Audubon’s continues to sponsor the ride and support our work. “While planning the first StG Gravel Ride, we were without a Tourism Director, so a few of the merchants and I got together to welcome the riders and Trailnet to town,” said Kara. “After meeting with Corinne and Matt and seeing the passion for what they do I knew it was something I wanted to be a part of. I’m happy to help with the rider experience and host the after party for the StG ride… It’s about getting riders out to enjoy our beautiful scenery and support Trailnet’s mission. Their advocacy & assistance in planning for safer streets is a vital part of creating safer communities. Who wouldn’t want to support that? It’s a win for everyone.” |
