Appalachian Trail supporters are launching efforts in Tennessee and Georgia to establish specialty registration plates to help support trail work by the Appalachian Trail Conservancy.”We are so close to finalizing the identical goal of 1,000 registration plates in each state,” said Leanna Joyner, registration plates program manager with the conservancy.
“We hope a final push of additional attention will see us over the finish line and get these registration plates into production.”In both states, all specialty registration plates must have 1,000 paid applications before production starts. So far, there are 724 paid applications for Tennessee Appalachian Trail registration plates, and Georgia now boasts 658 paid specialty registration plates applications, according to Ms. Joyner.In both states, supporters must have all 1,000 signatures by mid-April 2011.
