For those of you who don't know (or may have forgotten) there is a meeting today at the BREC Perkins Road Park. The goal of the meeting/workshop is to gather input from the community about what types of activities should be included in the redesign of the park. One large portion of this park is to be devoted to a concrete skatepark. We need as many BMXers from the area to show up and get our voices heard. We already know how pathetic the situation is in Hammond- let's make sure the same does not happen in Baton Rouge.

In other news, a lot of work has been done recently on the trails outside of Baton Rouge. A lot of locals have been putting time in with the shovels and the jumps are looking good. A new line with some serious jumps has been forming over the last couple of weeks. Here's some pics from a rainy day digging session:
