The second annual Chris Kegel Day Bike Ride and Walk and park bench dedication will be held at 4 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 3, at the Ozaukee County Trail Bridge Park, which is located at the west end of the bridge over I-43 in the Town of Grafton.

The State Department of Tourism also will present a check to the county to promote the Ozaukee Interurban Trail.

Christ Kegel day was established by the county in 2016 to remember Kegel who was instrumental in creating the trail.
