Trailblazers get peek at new building

MONTICELLO – The Piatt County Trailblazers are looking forward to getting back in the saddle this spring. They're also looking forward to the completion of a new clubhouse to be able to enjoy club activities and host community events.

The Trailblazers' original clubhouse, built in 1960, was destroyed by a fire in July. The cause of the blaze was thought to be an electrical problem in the kitchen area. The club members started planning to rebuild a more modern structure right away.
