After watching the NPS squander their operating budget during the October 2013 Shutdown, I have no sympathy for the crew in Hagerstown with it comes to budget shortfalls concerning the towpath. Surely, there are other means available to generate maintenance and capital improvement revenue that do not saddle the taxpayer and put anyone hiking/biking the trail in an adversarial position with the Park Police. With all that college education sitting around the Dual Highway HQ I am sure that someone could conjure up an creative and original way to close the budget gap.
