What a weekend!!! I would like to start by thanking BJ, Pam, Avari, and Meya Miller, Bobby Reece, Neil King, Stephen Hetzel, and Jon Penner. These CTTA members took several extra steps for me for this event to happen. Chase McDonald took charge of Sat AM sections. At, 14, quite the feat.
With an abundance of bluebonnets, coupled with many weekend BBQ fundraiser entrants, the air was filled with scents of pleasure that one could not inhale enough times. Saturdays loop led the riders through acres of bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush to some brand new sections for both segments of the day. A half inch of rain on Friday added some wetness to a few PM sections, splash splatters. The dreaded or loved gravel pit became tamed a little bit more with the moisture. Sunday turned into log day for the afternoon guys. Roughly 45 logs crossing for the Masters per loop x4, logged out.
Two Cadet riders made their debut this weekend as well. Sam and Parker will be two to watch in the near future.
The CASA cookoff raised over $1400 for the Bastrop, Lee, and Fayette county area. I apologize for the unknown of food availability. Next year (if allowed to again) will morph into food trailer courts Saturday night with a single charge to graze from grill to grill or ala carte pricing. I was approached by a hot air balloonist (Nick Stanko), so look for those next year, weather permitting.
To finalize, thanks for the continued support of this event to both entrants and volunteers.
Wayne McMahan, SORTA.
