Trail Building at AJ Jolly Park

Hey all you hikers, trail runners and mountain bikers, A.J. Jolly Park in Campbell County has been opened to us for trail building! A small group of dedicated mountain bikers have been working tirelessly with county officials to open the way for a new trail system. The trails are currently planned to extend 10 + miles through beautiful park land. We are thrilled and appreciative for being granted access to this wonderful place. These trails will no doubt be enjoyed by nature lovers of all kinds.

After several months of meetings, planning and mapping the fun part has begun. It is time to build the trails! Please join us each Sunday morning through the end of August for some good old fashioned shovel slinging, tree trimming and clearing of weeds and downed trees. If you have never had the opportunity to join in some trail building this is a great place to start. This trail system from start to finish is dependent on volunteer efforts for completion. All trails are built to IMBA standards with attention paid to erosion concerns and sustainability issues. Experts in the field of trail building will be on hand to direct operations.

For more information about volunteer opportunities please call us here at Reser Bicycle Outfitters 859-261-6187. To receive an email bulletin for trail building events send your information and a request to be notified to jreser@reserbicycle.com.
