-North by NW Productions is going to be filming at Camp Sekani,
starting May 23. They will have a staging area down in the meadow, and their location is West of the shuttle road, up around the old lodge area. Some of jumps in the gully above the dual slalom
may to be closed off for short amounts of time, but probably not on the weekends. The Beacon Blowout folks are working with Parks and NxNW to make sure there is a minimum of conflict. They will have 24 hour security on site. If you need more info, Wheelsport E has detailed site information.

- Avista has given us a huge amount of cedar poles, specifically to be use for future bike park projects. Want to help build? We are looking for folks who want to help make this a reality. Talk to Dan W at Wintersport.
