Melissa in the Morning: The “Big Goof-Up”

We learned about the discovery of the Washington Rochambeau Trail in Newtown and its rich history dating back to the days of George Washington. However, this registered historic trail is apparently set to be developed. How can that be? We investigated the situation and spoke with Dave Akert. He is leading the fight to protect the land and push the town to reverse course on its plans.
