HWPI Staff Spotlight: Mackenzie Wisniewski, Assistant Director
Mackenzie joined the HWPI team as Assistant Director in September 2020. She will be working closely with the staff, Board of Directors, and Executive Committee to further develop fundraising activities and facilitate growth of the B2B community. With a degree in Environmental Studies from Florida State University, Mackenzie has had a successful career in both higher education and nonprofit fundraising. She continues to strive to “do better for the world” which is her main reason for her dedication and commitment in this field.
Originally from Florida, Mackenzie moved to Michigan in 2017. She lives in Ann Arbor with her husband Michael and their dog Oakley. Outside of work she enjoys spending as much time as possible outdoors. She also enjoys gardening, baking, and spending quality time with her family and friends. Mackenzie volunteers her free time to Florida Camp for Children and Youth with Diabetes as an annual volunteer and board member.
Mackenzie believes that the B2B trail is an important resource across the Washtenaw County community. She loves that the B2B Trail provides a safe environment to exercise, explore the outdoors, see nature, and stay healthy. She is thrilled to join the HWPI team and work with an enthusiastic and collaborative group that is completing the B2B Trail.
Welcome MacKenzie!! 🙋🏼♀️❤️
📣 Exciting progress continues on the Border-to-Border Trail at Dehli Metropark! This trail segment is the first of a two-part project that will extend the #B2BTrail an additional 1.8 miles. When the project is finished, it will complete 4 miles of continuous trail from Dexter to Ann Arbor!
Construction on this first section of the B2B started in mid September with its completion anticipated in early November. This project not only includes paving the new pathway, but also moving Skip's Huron River Canoe Livery to a new location in the Metropark to accommodate the extension of the trail.
The second section of this project will add just under a mile of trail going from Zeeb Road to East Delhi Road. Construction will begin with tree work to be done this winter. We hope to celebrate the official opening of this trail segment with partners, Huron-Clinton Metroparks and Washtenaw County Parks & Recreation Commission in the summer of 2021.
🍂 We are so excited about this trail progress that brings us closer to connecting Dexter to the City of Ann Arbor!
Looks like you are making great progress!
Drove by this morning and saw the concrete apron on either side of E Delhi, I assume paving will follow shortly. Will the next bridge from W Delhi Metropark cross just West of Boyden Creek?
Awesome. What is the best guess for how long it will be until we have a complete trail from AA to Dexter? I've *really* appreciated what we have so far and look forward to it all getting connected!

Amazing!! Based on the location of the concrete truck, I must have been there 30 minutes prior to you 🙂
