Up-date, Rocky mountain bikes will not be attending do to a conflict with another event,but I'm hoping they will supply some give away/Raffle stuff.

[G-spot]

Up-date Diamond springs is in for suppling us with water.They are donating 35-5gallon bottles and 2 dispensers. I know this is minor but just to keep everyone up to date.

I'm also hoping to have some bike games.i.e. bunny hop,tire change,huffy toss, and maybe a big wheel /green Machine race.

I knew that comment would get some type of remark.... but I didn't think it would be from YOU!

[welshy]

If side hopping is allowed, 42" ish :brows:

[welshy]

So, anyone know if theres anything out there i can use to put on a little show? i.e. picnic tables

[G-spot]

Maybe a table,but that is about it u will need to make something up or if we can get together we can go by and see what the park has that u can use.

[welshy]

Thats cool. I can probably get a few pallets together.
Maybe we can get together next weekend?

[SK6]

I have the truck and trailer if you want to bring something substantive.

[G-spot]

That will work. Give me a call near the end of the week so we can set something up and have a beer over it.

I finally got around to looking at it! Cost will be $5.00 per head plus the park entrance fee for each vehicle. The attachment shows the cabins broken down by bunk. Were you planning on posting this on the forums? If so, can you state that people should email me at lmagalska@comcast.net with their name, phone number, email address and which type of cabin they want (2, 4, 6, or 8 bunk). Let me know if you have any questions.

# of Cabins Available / # of Bunk Beds / Price a night
4 / 2 / $10.00
2 / 4 / $20.00
12 / 6 / $30.00
3 / 8 / $40.00
The cabins will be about ½ to ¾ of a mile( by trail) from tent camping.
There will be no tents or Campers set up in the cabin area.(but easy up canopys are allowed)

There will be tent camping, and trailer/camper camping available also. And Group camping as well. Tent and camper sites are $25( w/water/elec) a night and group camping(water/elec) is $78 a night.


Thanks!
