Our 2011 Grand jean weekend was outstanding, and well worth our time from many perspectives. First off, it was downright Fun as everyone came with a smile on their face and left with one too. All humans and critters were safe, but a few sore muscles have been reported.
Second, there was fireside Cross cut Saw training put on by Sawtooth trail ranger Deb Peters on Friday. This was some great Education for us and demonstrates our continuing partnership with the Sawtooth Ranger District.
Third, a small group of willing volunteers got some practical experience on the North Barron Creek trail, using the Chapters Saw purchased last year. At the same time on Saturday, other members rode different trails removing down fall when encountered. Even our newest member, Laurie Bryant (AKA the Wanderer) was having Fun brushing out trails and got to experience that BCH is more than just a riding club.
On Sunday some riders headed out and Bill & I finally got to the top & enjoyed Trail Lakes. The scenery was breath taking and I believe Linda Hays went thru 29 rolls of film that day.
The Meals were delicious and showed the culinary talents and creativity of our membership. So, while you are reflecting on the great time had by all, please get on the website and log your hours. I know the navigation is a bit different, but lets try to enter the information. If you get stuck and are ready the throw the computer out the window, Rob is always willing to help.
Please check out our activities and participate when you can. Packers Play Day is right around the corner and that is always Fun, plus it promotes our organization to the Emmett community. Calendars are coming too.
Hope to see you on the Trail, Marybeth Conger
