The
SouthEast Texas Hike & Bike Coalition is incorporated in the
state of Texas and is classified as a non-profit Public Charity by the
IRS. The SETHBC was organized for the purpose of creating (or
supporting the creation of) recreational / alternative transportation
trails in SouthEast Texas. Our long-term vision is a
"recreational / alternative
transportation" trail from High Island to Lufkin. But we want to
support any endeavor to promote recreational / alternative
transportation trails (urban and/or rural) in this area, as these
trails serve communities in many different ways.The Southeast Texas Hike and Bike Coalition supports the creation of a network of recreational transportation trails throughout Jefferson, Orange, Hardin Counties. The Coalition works with and encourages local and county governments to designate shared roads and to create dedicated paths that will appeal to users of bicycles and other alternative forms of transportation. Coalition members promote safe riding habits and safe areas to ride. Members believe that a network of trails will accomplish several important goals for Southeast Texas.
Make our communities better places to live by creating and preserving open spaces and
culturally and historically valuable areas Protect the environment
Allow non-motorized and handicapped access
Encourage physical fitness
Create new recreational opportunities and increase tourism and
Strengthen local economies
