Jim was not sure if they had gotten it fixed or exactly how much work had been done. The plan also included to have equipment on site at the end of the rainy season next winter and do a more permanent fix on the fire roads, then start on the trails. Also, the Escarabajo Buggy Club members have been going up to the park and working on the fence line which they have gotten totally patched up so, great work by the Escarabaja Buggy Club. Some Northern California CORVA members also passed out flyers to the riders at Frank Raines to advise them of the boundary issues and regulations and remind them if they don’t stop riding on private land the park will be closed. We are taking this very seriously and our clubs are working very hard so this will not happen.
