Sedona Bike Park Update

Curios how the bike park is coming? Well good!!! We are behind the original timeline but we just received the 100% plans produced by IMBA Trail Solutions in Conjunction with Stanctec Engineering. Things are looking good!!!! We also received 500 cubic yards of dirt donated from the Marriott project which will significantly reduce costs on dirt import. Engineering has to take one final look over the plans and then we will be to sending this project out to bid for construction in the coming weeks! If you know of anyone who would like to be on the contact list for the potential construction contract get in contact with Doug Copp the Sedona City Bike Park Cordinator at: DCopp@sedonaaz.gov

KSB pursues National Monument Designation

Are you curious about Keep Sedona Beautiful's pursuit of getting Sedona and a good portion of the Verde Valley designated as a National Monument? So are we. A big thanks to Board Member Dan Blaetter for volunteering to sit on KSBs executive committee where the details of the movement will be discussed and developed. Dan hopes to ensure we cyclists are represented and we do not lose any access or rights.

If you are curious to find out more on the movement here is a link to a website put up by KSB for more info: www.sedonaverdevalleyredrocknationalmonument.org

We also encourage people to look into this themselves. There are a 9 other monuments managed by the National Forest with in the US. Please share your thoughts through the comments or email us at: board@vvcc.us
