Pictures of the BMAC/West Rutland Town 2 mi. loop

The wet areas crossing the snow covered trail are actual water bars. In the last 2 months since the Last Hoorah, the rains had practically washed out the entire trail of the 2 mi. loop that leads up to Herrick. Our contractor did a fantastic job of saving this trail. It was a good thing we were able to get the work done before winter. Now the trail can settle and will be an excellent ATV trail next year.
Thanks to VASA for monetary support and guidance! And V.P. Ray Viger for assisting Dave with getting the pictures today

BMAC's 2 mi. Loop up to Herrick

More good BMAC trails completed

Great news! Our contractor has completed Man MT. and it's closed off for winter on the West side. Pics soon!

He also completed the 2 mi. loop before the ground became solid and it's one fine trail.
Now plans are in the works for winter trail crew work and opening the lookout, weather permitting.

BMAC & the West Rutland Food Shelf

The Officers and BoD of BMAC is pleased to announce that on behalf of BMAC, a check for $200 was presented to Tony Morgan director of the West Rutland Food Shelf, just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday. Along with 4 bags of food.

The West Rutland food shelf helps out approximately 40 families in West Rutland and surrounding area.

Meeting Reminder for Nov.

Just to remind everyone that there will be no meeting this Sunday, due to the first weekend VT rifle season.

Also, since there will be no meeting there will be no collection for the West Rutland Food Shelf and Thanksgiving is less then 2 wk's. away. The Officers of BMAC are working on filling in this void, but we'd like to suggest that any members who could help out with nonperishable's or a donation of money/check for the Food Shelf to please contact any of the officers or by email. We can make arrangements for pickup, within a reasonable distance or tell you a drop off point.

As always the W.R. Food Shelf will appreciate all help.

Time change this weekend!

Time reverts to standard time at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday of November. In the U.S., each time zone switches at a different time.
