Itusi trailwork schedule Jun 25-26 Jul 30-31 Aug 27-28 Sep 24-25 Oct 22-23 Nov 19-20 Dec 17-18 Dates are subject to change so watch for updates.   Right now, we have approximately 1.5 miles of trail left to complete on the Laurel Loop extension.  bOb hopes to have the machine work completed by the end of June so it will be up to the volunteers to hand finish the trail so it can be opened for riding!!  There is still a permit required for the creek crossing which we hope to have in hand soon. Thanks again to all the volunteers who have come out in the past.  We can't do it without you.
