On Saturday, Nov. 16, members of the Westminster Road
Runners Club, as well as friends and family, will honor the memory of Terry

"Over the years the eight-foot wide paved Wakefield
Trail, the city's first hiking and biking trail, has developed one leg at a
time, inspired in part by the legacy of Burk, who ran with the Road Runners
Club for many years. Today, the 2.1 mile linear park trail extends from Long
Valley Road to Uniontown Road. Planning began in earnest for the trail in
1994." http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/carroll/westminster/ph-ce-eagle-archives-1103-20131111,0,434181.story
