Join us for one of TWO great events happening on Saturday!
We are holding our first beginner mountain bike clinic of the season. Whether you’re new to mountain biking or looking to refine your skills, this clinic is perfect for getting started! Our experienced instructors will guide you through the basics of technique, equipment, and safety while you enjoy the beautiful landscape at Catamount Outdoor Family Center.
Additionally, our Executive Director John Atkinson will be leading an educational walk to learn more about Fungi Vitality. We will discuss home growing and wild foraging techniques, along with the multitude of ways to use fungi to enhance health and improve aging.

Both will be a great time, so register on our website!
