We are going to clean up the Maiden Lake trail this Wednesday May 15th dealing with some wet areas and brushing to improve the line of sight. This is a simple project so if we have a large turn out we will send a crew to deal with some erosion issues on the Ridgemont trails. The Pub at the Parkplace lodge has offered to sponsor our work parties again this year with refreshments and Nachoes afterwards. Meet at the bike park at 6:00pm or the Maiden Lake parking area behind Extra Foods at 6:10pm.

See you Wednesday!!!
