In 1992, Five Rivers MetroParks, the Village of Brookville, and the Village of Trotwood purchased what became the Wolf Creek Rail Trail and worked together to provide staff, equipment, and materials to build the 13 mile trail on an abandoned rail corridor. Pete Smith, Area Manager at Five Rivers MetroParks, was assigned to construct the trail, and he used his construction experience and leadership to unite the three agencies into a single working unit. Pete's Station is named in dedication to the man credited with making the Wolf Creek Rail Trail possible.
