Register Here: https://www.imba.com/civicrm/event/info?id=284&reset=1 Why does it cost $50? The HMBA has worked hard to keep costs down for the event. We have worked every angle to get donations and free stuff, but there are hard costs for the event. HMBA is attempting to break even on the event so we can spend money where we like to... building more trails! This event is worth FAR MORE than $50. We are bringing in trail builders from around the country for work shops and trail building training. Can I attend just part of the event? Absolutely, but you must register for the Summit to take part in any of the sessions or summit activities. Where can I stay while I'm in town? The Seasons Lodge in Nashville is a sponsor of 2013 Great Lakes summit. Summit participants receive a discount for staying the weekend of the event. Just mention the summit when you call! Group camping is also available at Brown County State Park. You must be registered in order to camp in the group campsite. Will I have time to check out the trails? Of course! There will be ample riding time on both Saturday and Sunday. I am a land owner/park manager. Is this summit right for me? We are offering a Land Managers Workshop on Friday. This workshop is free for land managers and includes lunch.
