SUMMARY:VMBA Days - Burke Mountain & Kingdom Trails
DESCRIPTION:The VMBA Days series is coming back for its sixth season with some new great additions. We’re beyond excited to welcome back Lawsons Finest Liquids as the presenting partner of the series. We’re also happy to welcome POC as a supporter of the series as well. \nFor DH\, we are bringing back our ‘New to DH’ and ‘Show Me Around The Resort’ group rides. These will be led byVMBA Ambassadors. At each stop we will also have a Community Builder partner that will lead their own group rides. Signing up for group rides secures a raffle ticket for the day. For this stop we will be donating a portion of the proceeds to Kingdom Trails Association.
