Just want to thank everyone who showed up and actually toughed it out on a very cold and very windy day on the glacier. We want to thank our sponsors and apologize to them also.We had aa hell of a time with banners in hte high wind. Who could have predicted we would have the coldest April on record this year. Seeing frozen waterfalls on the drive home in late April is just wrong.
We thought we had the grooming problem solved this year yet somehow it got pulled out from under us again. Nobody was more frustrated than me at the end of the day pulling a 200 plus pounds skiff with my turbo down that trail at 5mph.
Only good news about that is the money we had for grooming and then some will be donated from you, our sponsors and the BDSO to help keep sledding areas open. More to follow on that.
I need to put a few more thanks out to everybody who helped us.
Our judges-Fab and Summit Seeker, Red Dog.
First Aid-Whistler Cowboy
BBQ- Chef Phil
Guys who helped set up-- Blair Parker, Ted Morrisy, Roger and Ryan Allain(spelling) and the Fabster of coarse ,hope I did not miss anybody.And everybody who helped tear down. Boy that was quick.
Want to thank Red Dog for suppling music again and Randy for MCing .
Want to thank everybody for packing garbage out. We found very little garbage both on the hill,trail or in the parking lot. GOOD JOB.
Special thanks to Team Summer Sucks for helping out and the BDSO champ jersey. Very cool.
Now on to a couple of other things.
First off anybody know how the kid is doing who broke his leg down playing by the lake while the races were going on.?
Thanks Greg from mountain mod mania having the heli out there and with garbage pick up. You too Matt (SledJunkies).
Sorry to hear that your tires got slashed at the banquet Greg. That sucks.Thanks Linc for fixing him up.
And I hope the guy who hit the truck in the parking lot comes forward also.
Not sure what the future of the BDSO is but we will all step back for a bit and go from there.
Thank You
Shawn Hamilton
