2012 Kerry Stamey Memorial Group Ride & BBQ

Postby Ryan B. » Thu Apr 19, 2012 10:07 pm

Please come out and join us in remembering our dear friend and trail advocate Kerry Stamey. Kerry lost his fight to cancer 6 years ago. His years of dedication and love for biking helped build the wonderful trail system we all enjoy so much today. He loved nothing more than seeing others out having a great time together on the bike and so to honor his memory we celebrate and ride these great trails we are so fortunate to have.

WHEN: Sunday, April 29, 2011 at 12:00pm
WHERE: Comite Trail Head
WHAT: BBQ will begin @ 12ish

- Memorial Group Ride for all levels of riders with a stop at Kerry's beach
- Slow Race
- Time Trial
- Cycle Circle (paint small circles on the ground and see who can stay inside the lines longest)
- Gear Toss (sort of like horseshoes with a cassette cog)
- Kan Jam? (does not require bike skills)

We will have a BIG pit (courtesy of Lloyd) out by the pavilion. BRAMBA will provide the burgers and hotdogs.
Please bring some side dishes and desserts to share (pot luck style). To list what you will bring, please visit: http://j.mp/JRW6xA
BYO Beverage. (Alcohol not permitted on BREC property *COUGH*)

Thanks & we are looking forward to seeing you all there! (and thanks to Robin & Jeff for helping to write this)

It's a game involving two teams of two players each. It's points based, and each team tries to get the frisbee into what is essentially a small garbage can by throwing directly into it, or more frequently slapping/jamming the frisbee into it. I don't like it because Jeff V. and Holly cheat, but I'll play again for sure.
