This was a nice, well run event.  I met a few more TrailBlazers this morning, and saw a couple of familiar faces as well.

We paired up with the Dirt Divas, and they were great with my 9 year old.  She's ridden the green at Beatty before, but coaching from someone other than her parents was priceless - special thanks to Heather, and one other who's name I didn't get.  Their guidance had her charging up a hill (incline) that left her in tears just an hour earlier!

Thanks to all who donated their time!

Good Times at Francis Beatty Park on Saturday. Lots of smiles, laughs, falls, scrapes, more laughs...and that was just the adults!! We had a great turnout and beautiful weather to enjoy all the work the gnomes put into the trails in preparation for the event. Thanks to everyone that joined us to make this the biggest and most successful TAKMBD ever. 

I received a Thank You message from Paula Fricke, Executive Director of Trips for Kids Charlotte that reads in part: 

"There's no doubt Saturday was our biggest and best TAKMBD yet! Please pass on my thanks to all of the Trailblazers for their help and support. You all make it soooo much easier!"

Go to the Trips for Kids Charlotte Facebook page to view pictures!

Well done Trailblazers!

Dennis
