Fall 2015 Redbird Clean-up/Flex Memorial Run Nov 14th

This year is quickly flying by. Let's throw out some dates for the Fall Clean-up run at Red Bird ORV in Dugger, IN.

In case you didn't know, for over 10 years now, the MWC has done a clean up run at Red Bird twice a year. One of the runs is in the spring and one is in the fall.

Edited with information on the Clean up run.

Date: November 14th, 2015

Time: 9am we will meet at the front gate and go in as a group. We will begin our clean up run. We will send a group to cut the tree down on the trail that rips tail lights off and a group will work with a DNR rep to move stone to clean up a nasty muddy hole at the entrance. Depending on numbers, a group with trash bags will look for trash on the trail, and all of us will do the same for the remainder of the trail.

For information on the campground we are staying at: please click here

There is a Toy for Tots event going on at the same time that we are going to be there. Bring a toy and get a free ticket for a raffle that "The Main Event" Off-road club will be hosting. They are also serving lunch starting at 11am with the raffle at 1130am at Redbird Station, where we are camping. Also during lunch/raffle, the MidWest chapter will be presenting and dedicating a bench that LessLimited is building in memory of Aaron "FlexdXJ" Thompson. The MWC will also be making a donation to Redbird in the form of a check from the chapter and National NAXJA in memory of Aaron.

Due to the timing of lunch, we need to be at the main gate as close to 9am as we can. We'll spend two hours getting work done, go to lunch/raffle/dedication, then if need be we'll finish up the clean up or just go enjoy trails around Redbird.

We may have some others helping us with the clean up that knew Aaron from other local central Indiana clubs.

Should be a fun and profitable day.

I will also have memorial stickers available at the event for $5 each.

Thank you to all who can make it.

Re: Fall 2015 Redbird Clean-up run

I would think early nov as to stay away from thanksgiving.

but I may not be able to attend so take my vote for what it is.
 
Re: Fall 2015 Redbird Clean-up run

November NOT the 7th lol. I vote 14th I guess?
 
Re: Fall 2015 Redbird Clean-up run

I don't know if my rig is too small for the clean up trail since I have never been to Redbird, but I guess I could ride if someone had an empty seat, my vote would be for November.

Re: Fall 2015 Redbird Clean-up run

I'm thinking that this is looking like Nov 14th might be the best date.

Tho he hasn't posted in here, Wheeler said the 14th would be the best date for him as well.

Last that I saw they were to reopen with the Hilift event which was a couple weeks ago.

I can send them a message on FB and find out tho.
