*Alberta Riders receive early BMX Christmas gift*
Alberta BMX is pleased to announce that successful efforts have taken place and an indoor BMX facility has been secured for January to April 2012. The building will be at the Mega dome located in Olds.
Building of the track is expected to begin in mid December and the track will hopefully be open and ready for training in early January 2012.
The Alberta Provincial race originally scheduled for April 2012 will be moved to March 31st and April 1st due to scheduling conflicts with the originally scheduled weekend.
The cost of this facility is expected to be approximately $25, 000. The majority of the funding for this facility will come from the indoor fund that Alberta BMX created during the Provincial series in 2011. The remainder will come from Club donations and/or user fees. I will provide full details asap.
We are planning to bring Adam MUYS in from BC to build the track. That being said though I would suspect that volunteers will be needed to assist. We will also be looking for a gate to use. If anyone has one available please let me know and we'll make arrangements to get it to Olds.
I would like to thank all those that have made the indoor a reality for 2012 and hopefully beyond. I see this as a great opportunity to develop our Alberta riders.
Thanks,
Tim Croft
President-Alberta BMX
