[Biking-L] Trail Work Saturday

[Dan Uptmor]

Hey everyone,

Way to show up for trail work.  We cleared all of Sundown today, took about three hours.  Also one of the locals who showed up to help, named Joe, suggested we put on a XC race to raise money.  He made it seem very doable.  He was telling me that his senior year they had the regional XC collegiate race here at Strouds Park (don't know how long ago that was).  I also explained the whole pay to play issue.  He seemed to think it would be a better choice to stay with club sports.  

No doubt this would be some work, but it would give the club tons of money.  Enable a lot of trip funding (those of you who want to do downhill trips also).  Spring quarter would be the time to start looking into this if we wanted to try and host it next fall.  I will bring this idea up at the first meeting Spring quarter.

Dan

Fellas,

Jim just got back about the details for trail work this Saturday, March 13. We will need as many people as possible to help out! Here's the chance to actually work on the trails with chainsaws!

When: 10:00am
Where: Strouds Run, the Parking area beyond the beach.

Bring: A chain saw IF and ONLY IF you have signed the Ohio State Park waiver for it.
    Any handsaw
    Your bike... if it's not raining

I will drive there if it is raining, and I will bike there if it is dry. If it will be raining, I can give people a ride at the Morton parking lot. E-mail me back if you need a ride!

Thanks,
Pat

Many Thanks for offering your time.
Plan to meet Saturday @ 1000 @ the end of the parking area beyond the beach.
Some big trees down, will need hand saws and chain saws.
If you have signed the Ohio State Park waiver… bring your chain saw.
Otherwise bring your best hand saw.
If it’s not pouring… bring your bike.
Lots of room between the tree falls.
Bring whatever team you can put together...
Later
Jim
