    Saturday June 5th will be our first maintenance run of the year on Strawberry Pass Trail.  This is the trail the club sponsors.  The fall run will be held on a Saturday in an attempt to accommodate peoples schedules.  To maintain member status you must make 1 of the 2 maintenance runs. If anyone is unable to make this event and wasn’t on the spring run or fall run last year please talk to me at the meeting or send me a PM.  That said, this is about trail clearing and maintenance for the forest service.  Our key goal for this run is bucking the trees the equipment knocked down repairing the trail and moving the rocks back into place.

    Trip info:

    Meeting place – Shell at Pollock Pines exit off Highway 50 at 8:30am.  We will meet and after a quick drivers meeting, split into groups, and will head up to the trailhead about 9:00AM.

    Things to bring:

    -Gloves

    -Loppers/hand saw

    -Chainsaw (please only USFS certified operators, no exceptions) and safety gear (chaps, eye protection, ear protection)

    -Tree Savers (to wrap around rocks)

    -Crowbars/breaker bars to move rocks

    -Water

    -lunch

    May be there, but maybe won't be able to attend.

    I've got many things going on at the same time.

    Last week of school, son moving home from college, mom's 99th birthday, etc.

    Like I said earlier, this is very short notice.

    I used to wheel a lot. . .

    I’m tentative at this time, depending on my track bar bracket being done. Will update on the evening of the 3rd or on the 4th.

    Yes, it is okay to do a joint member BBQ (doesn't actually have to be a BBQ). I will be there so just one person for me.

    Could Jim and I use this event as our club membership feed? Do we have a head count? How many sandwiches should we bring?

    Just moved my mom to a board and care, put her on hospice, and celebrating her 99th birthday... I won't be there.

    99, that's amazing. Good for her to live such a long life. I'm sorry to hear that she is entering hospice but what an amazing feat to live so long.

    Thanks Jeff, hopefully she will hang on a bit longer.

    Is the member lunch still on? If so, do we have a headcount for sandwiches? Are we doing a potluck for the rest of the food or should we just bring our own sides (chips, etc.) and drinks?
