Potable water at the trail head would be great. The weather station has to have a well or city water....
Need to consider some Saturday workdays. Takes a few hours to get into the swing of making new trail and the short weekday work sessions are less productive than an all day session.

I like the idea of a pump/dirt track BMX style! That would bring an other perspective to peoples riding ablity and offer some fun to those who are not into the XC thing.

I agree on the Saturday workdays. For some of us with little kids its hard to volunteer right after getting off of work. A Saturday morning would be easier to get away.

One other idea - some introductory info that can be handed out with mtn bike sales at the local shops. List where to ride, when the newbie rides are, etc.

All of these ideas have already had some thought put into them (that's why they're on the agenda). If you are interested, have any thoughts on how to implement them, or can be involved with making it happen, please come to the Board Meeting on Tuesday.

Right now there are a few people doing too much work. So if you want these things to happen, we need more people to get involved to make these ideas a reality.
