The Spring Ride at Sack Ranch was a huge success!

Hi All:

 

Just wanted to give a shout out to all of you about how successful our Spring Ride Fund Raiser was this year. We have had stronger financial finishes, but not everything can be measured in money. A lot of smiles, laughter and many asking about next year.

After 5 years, the new owner allowed us back in to the Sack Ranch and the North Bay Unit Board really stepped up to get so much accomplished in a short few months.

Big Thanks to the NBU Board: Cindy Rowe, Jeff Wright, James (Howdy) Kelley, Selina Galick, Mike Mascarenas, Leslie Wolcott, Beverly Krause, and Lindsay Merget.

For those of you that have not been to the Ranch, it is an amazing, tranquil place. We have the pleasure of free riding, but we did do a guided ride for those that wanted. Lake to swim in and trails with amazing views.

We first started our Spring Ride at the Sack Ranch in 2001.Our last ride there was in 2018. This week end there were 6 of us from the old guard of 2001: Jeff Wright, Selina Galick, Donna Meier, Armando  Montenegro, Alias Montenegro and myself, Dan Horn. Those other 5 have gotten real grey in the last 23 years. LOL.

The setup work crew did an amazing job. Lucky for us, most of them were veterans of previous rides there. A lot of our cleanup effort was made so much easier by how well everyone practiced “Leave No Trace”, Thank you all for doing such a fine job!

We want to thank Hector for mowing, repairing the Bridge and we will be fixing the culvert crossing this month.

The Fargo Brothers Band was great! There were people dancing right up to the last song, so I booked them for next Year. Yes, we will be returning in May of 2025. May 16th, 17th and 18th, so mark your calendar and tell your friends.

Thank You to the work crew and to everyone that attended.
