NBC Nightly News Series Features Greenways Initiative

NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams came to Detroit on April 6 to film a piece for its upcoming Green Week Environmental Series.  The segment, which will air the last week of April, will focus on cities around the world becoming more bike-friendly, particularly for commuters.  Thanks to the Greenways Initiative, a program of the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan, more than 80 miles of trails have been created to date in the region and Detroit.  Pictured here is a grandfather and his two grandsons being interviewed about their biking experience on the RiverWalk and Milliken State Park and Harbor.
