OTHER NOTES

Trails – Thank you to everyone who spent time clearing trails after our bouts of crazy summer weather.  Don’t forget to report downed trees or other big maintenance issues on EVMA chatter.

Grant – EVMA recently received a grant from REI to purchase new tools/equipment.  The board is currently making some decisions on how to properly spend the money.

Colonial Revolution Team – Have a middle or high school-aged child who could be a better rider than you?  Consider involving him or her on the Colonial Revolution Youth Mountain Bike Team.  Visit www.colonialrevolutionmtb.org for more details.

Volunteers Still Needed – Thank you to everyone who has stepped up to serve as board members.  We are still looking for ride leaders and people to help with various events.  Please contact Mike Benton at president@evma.org if you can help in any way.
