We would like to send out a sincere and well deserved thank you to all who volunteered for the work bee on Oct 25.  With a record turnout of 24 people, we were able to quickly complete our work, allowing us time to socialize and ride.  

We did some routine brush cleanup and manged to lay down 14 fiberglass ATV mats.  Some pictures of the work bee have been uploaded to our new photo gallery section:  Oct 2014 Trail Maintenance Photos

Great job everyone!!!

The 2014 Family Day poker rally was a great success again this year.  The weather was great and we had a great turnout with 307 registered riders.

 

Thank you to everyone who showed up for this day of fun.  Your continued support is greatly appreciated.

 

Let's also extend a special thanks to the 20 volunteers that worked tirelessly to make this another smooth, successful event.

 

We hope to see you all again at the next one!

We were happy to see 12 volunteers show up for yesterday's work bee.  The group had a nice day out and was able to clean a lot of deadfall that had accumulated this year.  In addition to the much needed cleanup of deadfall,  many trees were cut down in order to provide the room necessary for a snow groomer to pass through.

 

Thanks everyone, your help was very much appreciated!

As many of you probably know, on June 22, 2012 vandals set fire to the Beaver River Trestle, rendering the historic train trestle unusable and closing a section of the Iron Horse Trail.  A competition has been entered for the Aviva Community Fund for funding to have the trestle restored - all that's needed is votes.

 

 There are 3 qualifying rounds of voting before the final vote.  This cause is now in the second qualifier after losing out in the first qualifier - many votes are still required to continue to the semi-finals.  There are 7 days left before the voting deadline for the second qualifier and each voter can vote once per day.

 

Your votes would be greatly appreciated!
