Now that fireworks are legal in PA anything goes, big thanks to Tasha for coming out at night to shoot these rad photos. Follow her at tjl_photo for more rad stuff and hopefully will have more photos from her and some video stuff. click on images to see bigger version. Also try to look at the site on an actual computer not your phone, i cant seem to get the ads off on the mobile version even thou the site is paid for and ads are turned off.
Barnhart got a few photos from the Independence Day Jam at Catty below. Many thanks to everyone who makes the jams happen, this was a really good turnout and helped raise some funds to keep the woods going. Next on the agenda is Wet n Wild day which Mike Stauff is figuring out the final details soon enough, plus the High Air/Labor Day Jam at Posh.
This saturday and sunday the weather is looking good for some good times to be had in the woods. For the first time ever there will be a grill at Posh sunday so just bring your wallet or pocket book and buy some food and drinks. Same thing goes for Catty and also a prize raffle during the day with stuff from Mutiny and Action Wheels. The jumps are there come enjoy the woods and celebrate freedom and independence. New stuff at Catty and Posh for beginners to ride as well.

Its June already but a rainy spring has basically every run ready to ride and big thanks to everyone who has helped dig this spring. We are having the kids jam coming up on Saturday so get there around 12 for free pizza and some giveaways and maybe some pump track races. Donations are welcome that day to help with trail costs.
4th of July is right around the corner and we are doing the jam on the 30th of June because the 4th falls in the middle of the week. plan your trips come and ride…
This weekend went pretty well at the trails, its been raining a ton so only got a little riding done. Big thanks to all the people who travel to Catty or Posh to help dig, its been a great spring with all the rain we been getting and really stoked on how things are turning out.
Coming up on June 9th we are going to do a Pizza Party Pump Track Day at Catty, basically going to have free pizza and drinks for everyone. This is more focused on getting younger kids into trails and hoping to get some BMX families out and help raise the stoke on trails. We were going to do the same thing at Posh but figured its easier to focus on one, and if it rains we can try for it Sunday.
Joe was nice enough to come out and do a podcast talking about the trails and other random stuff. Give it a listen for free and spread the good word.

Coming up on May 26th and 27th we’re having a dig and ride day at catty and posh. Come out and help finish the rest of the stuff and will have a line or two going to ride.
I’ll try to keep this post positive. The digging/mid school day went off pretty good, it would of been cool if more people showed up to buy stuff but that’s the way it goes. The next day at posh barely anyone showed up. I get everyone is busy these days, and it’s hard to make time. But just realize even if you put it an hour it helps so much, so much work needs to be done to get the trails rolling. I know people make the time to ride them come summer and fall. I wish they didn’t take all this work to get them going but it’s the name of the game. So May 26th and May 27th try to make an effort to come out to either trails not even sure if anything will be rideable by then. Big thanks to jaybone for doing so much work for the midschool day. Also if your not listening to the BMX in our blood podcast your missing out. Look out for an interview about catty woods and swantz coming soon on there.
