Memorial Pledge

The Redbank Valley Trails Association is a non-profit organization accepting secure electronic pledges from all major credit cards via Paypal. You do NOT have to have a Paypal account to submit a pledge. Complete the form below to make a pledge or use the downloadable forms at right.  Please use the Memorial Pledge form for benches.  We are requesting a donation of $500 for a single sided, (one-seat) bench and $750 for a picnic table.  We have many benches between Brookville and Summerville and therefore do not wish to add more in that section at this time other than at Baxter, mile 36.2,  but benches are needed in other areas of the trail.  Benches are limited to wooden benches similar to existing wooden benches in keeping with PA Wilds and natural setting design standards. Other memorial opportunities now under planning are mile marker and trailhead plaques.  Shelters and historic markers are other possibilities for memorial donations.

 
  • Pledge Information

  • Additional Information

  • We would appreciate any information about the person or family memorialized, such as a story or history as to why the location was chosen, for possible inclusion in the history of the trail or for a trail marker.

    Full payment of the pledge does not guarantee that the item will be built or purchased immediately. Construction and installation of amenities is based on a plan to maximize use of the trail. Funds may be used for other trail needs if other funds for materials or amenities are obtained. After full payment of the pledge and after the amenity has been installed, a tasteful memorial marker will be placed on or near the amenity or structure. Payment of the full amount of the pledge entitles the donor to a memorial plaque only and does not constitute ownership of the amenity or any materials. Naming rights are awarded on a first come first served basis. Donations are nonrefundable.

    Your contribution is tax deductible to the full extent the law allows. RVTA has qualified as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization with the Internal Revenue Service. On behalf of the Board of Directors and all members of the Redbank Valley Trails Association, your contribution is greatly appreciated.
