In answer to prior post question about status of Black Rock trails - I'd
say, nope, they're very much clear... but in need of maintenance after the
storms, and yer in luck... there's scheduled build days... the first one
happening this Sunday! If you register on BRMBA.org site, then ya get
these broadcast msgs about important upcoming events (usually build days and
the occasional shuttle day or raffle/video premiere at local pub theatre).

This is from Rich Bontrager - president of BRMBA...

Hey all, sorry for the late notice but there is a Black Rock Build Day
coming up THIS Sunday the 11th. The normal stuff applies, start time is
about 9:00 AM, if you are just building you can drive up to BT, if you are
working/riding please ride up and we'll get you to where you can help.

Please don't park in the Camp Field and remember to go slow through the
camp.

Most likely this work day will be spent doing cleanup from the last couple
of storms. Most trails are open but they can use cleanup and drainage; BT
needs some repairs from a couple of trees falling.

For reference here are the additional workdays scheduled for 2009: Sun Feb
15th, Sat Mar 14th, Sun Apr 12th, Sat May 9th and Sun Jun 14th.

Please remember to bring something for lunch and drinks for this workday!

There might be a chance of picking up a sack lunch from the A&N Hometown
Grocery in Falls City, if you are interested in that please contact Rich
(email below).

If you have any questions please contact Rich at richb@... or
volunteer@....
