FayettevilleHistory.com has a short slide show and description of the events related to today’s dedication of an interpretive marker commemorating a remnant of the Butterfield Overland Mail stagecoach route at the Lake Fayetteville Paved Trail.
The Butterfield Wayside Plaza rest area features a trail map, bike racks and benches.
Federal officials will soon assess the Butterfield Overland Mail Route for potential inclusion as a national trail.
