May 17- GTW SSS of SWLA Cleanup- Every year SSS cleans the beach after GTW to promote good citizenship. We are looking for sponsors for the dumpster we use for the cleanup day. Sponsorship allows you to have a sign advertising your business.
June 6th-14th - Moab Trip - Duke Lauw and Rob Reed can provide you with a lot of details on lodging and trails. Condos are very affordable when split with other couples. We have decided not to get a guide on Moab. We will be going on more difficult rides like Prichett Canyon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQn8T-8IeW0 Budget is important when going on these trips. You want to consider the cost of repairs that may be needed on the trail. You can bring spare parts with you or there are plenty of places in Moab to purchase parts. The group is going to stay at a hotel when traveling to Moab (around the half-way mark). Please don’t be discouraged by the level of trails we are going on. Please ask questions or ask for help. We are here to help! Another option in Moab is to rent a jeep to take on the trails.
Upcoming News:
We may be partnering with Billy Navarre in Sulphur for some special projects.
