It is not possible for us to pull of an event of this magnitude without your support.
I do have photo's and some video to post, and that will be up later on. First I must go find a massive leak in the back of my holiday trailer.
I cannot express thanks enough from All of us Staff here at Snowandmud to EACH & Everyone of you.
One last personal thanks to Mike Rempel, it meant a lot for you to take the microphone and publicly thank me for all I do. However I cannot do it without the backing of Glen, Wendy & Sara. They have been there as much as myself this year. We all thank you for your continued support as well.
A reminder as well, all volunteers names are being entered into a draw for volunteer appreciation draws.
I have 3 seperate prizes to give away:
(2) Gift Certificates for ATV/UTV Wrap from Spiralus Designs in Calgary
1 Custom Snowandmud.com Jersey with a $100 Gift Card to The Keg, from Snowandmud.com
It was a good event. You guys did a crap load of work and it showed. I guess it wasn't only me that noticed. I thought this year was pretty smooth. I have to make sure and get more riding in next year as I did miss riding. Yes I know, had I not drank as much Thursday I could have had a good ride Friday with the boys lol. Need to see more pics!! Need to drink less jello shooters.
The volunteers all did fantastic, were in abundance, and all seemed to be having a great time !
At least what I had witnessed ! Good luck to all of you in the volunteer draw . Well deserved .
Thanks Tyler and gang for a great jamboree !
Thanks to all the volunteers/organizers for putting on this event. The fireworks were amazing and the trail was awesome with the lunch. Thanks to all the sponsors who help fund the jamboree every year. I can't wait until next year! :d
