Hello everyone.
I want to say a BIG Thank You to the US Forest Service High Sierra Ranger District, the High Sierra OHV division and Forest Supervisor Mr. Gould for allowing us to host the first annual OHV Volunteer recruitment event.
I would personally like to say Thank you to the men and women from several clubs and organizations that showed up today to make this event happen. Also Thank You Randy Deaver and Buddy for coming up and singing some tunes for everyone’s entertainment.
And thanks to EVERYONE who had a hand in helping us pull this off!
But most of all, THANK YOU to the men, women, and families that came by, had lunch and signed up to Volunteer to keep our trails open for the public!
There will be another event next year and from the talks I’ve already had, it will be an amazing day.
