Road Trip Photos, and a Pump Track Update

As part of a series of "catching up" posts, here's some photos from our road trip to Alexandria, and some updates!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first weekend in June, a few of our TTC members took a road trip out to Alexandria to check out their pump track. The Alexandria pump track is the first (and currently only) municipal pump track in NJ, and we wanted to see for ourselves how it was done!

More of our photos of the day can be found here - and thanks to everyone who came out, and especially to Bob Adase, who came out and showed us the ropes, and to Jeff Mergler, for putting the day together!

And now, an update on our own West Milford pump track prospects! TTC and JORBA members Jeff Mergler, Dave Van Wart, and Jay Huggins made a presentation to the West Milford Town Council on June 15 with regards to building a pump track here in West Milford. The Town Council, as well as the Recreation Commission, the Economic Advisory committee, and the Environmental Commission are all been extremely supportive of the idea. There has been agreement on the site (the Farrell Field complex), and plans are moving forward! For an article on the meeting, please read this. 

What does this mean for us? Well, there are still details to be worked out, but it is looking more and more promising that come fall, we will be building a pump track here in West Milford! We will keep you up to date on developments, but in the meantime - thank you for all of your support! Lots of you voted in polls, and talked to people within the town voicing your support, and we really appreciate your efforts!
