CAMBA Reports Progress at Mt Ashwabay Mountain Bike Trails
The Mt. Ashwabay team has made good progress. Work started as soon as they could get at the trail following the record winter. Using the mini-excavator another ¾ mile of trail was roughed in.  Weekly work nights have been focused on finish work and other hand building. With upwards of five miles of singletrack at Mt. Ashwabay, a new map has been developed and the Mt. Ashwabay Cluster will be officially included on the CAMBA Area Map and Trail Guide.

“This event is our major fundraiser for the year,” Lindsey noted. “We are especially thankful to our major sponsors Kim West of Bayfield, Memorial Medical Center of Ashland and Mary Rice of Bayfield. Their support is critical to the success of the event.”
The arts council uses the money raised during the night as a match for a grant from the Wisconsin Arts Board. Those funds are then distributed to local artists and arts organizations to create arts and events benefitting the local community culturally and economically.
