We’ll have rides aimed at beginner folks to party laps to close out our day with Ranch Camp. Make sure you stick around for some aprés, and stay for some amazing raffle prizes from VMBA’s partners!

The end of the series and what a great place to do it. With our long time partners Burke Mtn Resort and Kingdom Trails Assoication. This is going to be a special one. Burke is offering any VMBA member a free ticket for the day, even if you used your vouchers. They also are going to do $5 shuttle tickets. Which will come in handy as our end of the day Ranch Camp party lap will be from the top of Burke all the way down to Mike’s Tiki Bar. Where Fiddlehead will be hosting final apre of the season.
