 The Huntington Greenway Trails Advisory Committee is comprised of volunteers that represent major trail users, including hikers, runners, bicyclists, equestrians, and conservationists.*
The Trails Advisory Committee assists the Parks & Recreation and Planning & Environment departments with trail identification, mapping and planning (courses, distances, features, and difficulty). The Committee also assists with programming with the goal of increasing public appreciation the Town’s parks and trails and providing more opportunities for recreational use and access. In addition, members lead hikes and monitor trails to assess repair and maintenance needs.
The Committee was also instrumental in publication of town’s first “Huntington Trails Guide” (2009) featuring more than twenty trails at twenty different park sites within the Town of Huntington. The Trails Guide earned Huntington the NY Association of Conservation Commissions Education Award that year. The Town now updates and republishes the Huntington Trails Guide (PDF) annually.

Huntington Greenway Trails Logo
 In March 2010, Councilman Mark Cuthbertson and the Trails Advisory Committee made an open invitation to all high school students to design a logo that would embody the goals and ideals of the Town and the Greenway Trails Committee. The winning logo (right) by Adam Feldman, a junior at Commack High School, captured both the natural beauty of Huntington's trails system and the concept of use by those of all abilities and interests. A simple sneaker footprint entwined within which is a bicyclist, a wheelchair trekker, a horseshoe, and a hiker. This logo is instantly recognizable and featured on the trail signage throughout the Town.
