Yesterday was the 11th annual Pick-Up the Burn. Even with the threat of rain we had an excellent turnout of 70+ volunteers that spent the day cleaning the forest. DNR was also out in full force with 7 or 8 staff members joining us for the day. When it was all said and done we just about filled up a 40 yard dumpster with the trash that we found in the forest. Thank you to everyone that came out today and helped make the forest a better place! Everyone arriving in the morning Nick Cronquist from DNR giving a safety briefing in the morning The Dillons modeling their safety gear Team work getting the tire out of the hole Cleaning up a party spot Looks like Michael and Trika found themselves a tree fort. Paul covering up graffiti Getting everyones trucks loaded up Back to Jones Creek to offload Dave and Rick helping unload everyones trucks Everyone getting involved Dumpster topped off and everyone having lunch

Hell, my name is Matt, my wife and I came out to lend a hand for a few hours. We were in the grey H3. I just wanted to say thank you for organizing a great event, and for the friendly welcome from those of you I got the chance to chat with!

Hey Matt, Thanks for coming out and helping for the day. I saw the H3 but I dont think that I had the chance to chat with you. Thanks again and I hope to see you around when we start building trails.

Hi Matt. This is Douglas (aka Wyldman). You joined my group in the woods. Thanks so much for coming out and supporting such a great cause. It was very nice to meet you and your wife. I think I had mentioned our club meeting coming up on Tues May 13th at 7:00pm at Pied Piper Pizza in Vancouver. It would be great if you could join us in a little informative fun and get to know the rest of our club members. Hope to see you there or on the trails. Until Next Time... Keep it on Three Wheels!
