Chapter Meeting, Sept 9th at Maybury

Motor City Mountain Biking Association

Please join us for an MCMBA chapter meeting at Maybury State Park on Sept 9th. We’ll provide a chapter update and a review of the results of our recent membership survey. This is a great opportunity to see what others are thinking, provide feedback, and help chart a course for the future of our chapter.

We’ll be meeting at the Oak shelter (see map at http://mmba.org/library/maps/maybury/maybury_map.pdf ). Enter the park off 8 mile and turn left at the T to park.

Bring your bike – the Maybury trail is open and in excellent shape.

We’ll fire up the chapter grill starting at 6 pm, and provide burgers, hotdogs, and soft drinks. Feel free to  bring adult beverages if you desire.

Meeting starts at 7 pm.

  1. Welcome and opening comments
  2. Approve Minutes from June Meeting
  3. Chapter update
  4. Survey result presentation and discussion
  5. Adjourn

We hope to wrap things up around 8:30, leaving time for a night lap of Maybury (bring lights!)

Out of park before it closes at 10 pm.

See you there!

    Awareness Signs

    One of the common refrains from our recent membership survey was the need for more chapter promotion at our trails. We agree. MCMBA board member John Cox made arrangements for the printing of a stack of these cool weatherproof signs. Look for them to start popping up at a trail near you!
