On THURSDAY, March 29, 2007 Montgomery County Parks and Rec will be holding a Public Forum to take comments on the Current CIP (Capital Improvents Budget) and comments on what people would like to see in the County for Parks and Rec.
I CAN NOT STRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS MEETING ENOUGH!
So important that Parks staff have been constantly telling me to inform all the bike groups of this meeting!
Current Issues are (feel free to add others):
- Bikes allowed in Skate Parks
- Jump/Freeride Park areas (stress the need for multiple sites, life is to busy to always have to drive cross County!)
- Support for a BMX Track with daily access (most likey at the Soccer Plex)
- More MTB trails in the County
- Support for Upper Rock Creek Trail System
The forum is 7:00 p.m. at M-NCPPCs Montgomery Regional Office Auditorium, 8787 Georgia Avenue, Silver Spring, Maryland 20910. To sign up to speak for 3 minutes call (301) 495-2511, or e-mail Patsy.Hedrick@mncppc.org. Sign-ups will be accepted at the door if space is available (limit 35 speakers).
PLEASE SIGN UP QUICKLY! (let me know if they say they are full).
