Hello everyone!
I'll be organizing, in conjunction with the Mt. Allamuchy Scout Reservation, a week long mountain biking camp for the summer of 2011. Most likely will be August 7-13, 2011. The camp will be open to all youths ages 13-17. It will focus on skills, training, racing, maintenance/repair, and trail building. I'd like to have one day set aside as an outing to Diablo to give the kids a chance to do some free-riding and DH. Riding won't be limited to Allamuchy either. Trips to Kittatinny and Deer Park will be held to keep things interesting.
I'm starting the ball rolling on this one to gain some interest early from the MTB community. I'll be hiring at least two other people for the week in addition to the camp staff that will already be there for other programs offered by MASR. A few skilled volunteers to pop in and out during the week would be great! Having a few CAT 1/Pro riders to come in and talk about racing would be very beneficial for our next generation of riders. Please PM me if you are interested in participating.
Since this program is new and the economy is old and busted, we could use any donations that you can spare. Not all the kids will have the freshest gear. Any decent apparel, parts, bikes!, tools, etc. would help out greatly. Since its going into a Scout sponsored program I think it will be a tax write off.
I'm still throwing around names and would love some suggestions. If all goes well maybe adults will get a week of there own!
Thanks!
