Results from Bike Park Landscaping Day

Saturday morning started off cold and snowy. But that didn't stop a group of dedicated volunteers from showing up at 8am with one goal in mind - get as many trees and shrubs in the ground as possible in one day!

The day was made possible because of the tremendous community support for this project. Our warmest thanks go out to the following who made it happen with their generous donations:

Josh Thulin / The Arbors Nursery - All 60 of the Trees & Shrubs, compost, and backhoe
Harmony Design - Landscape Plan and on-sight execution by Randy Blough
Valley Lumber - Mini-ex to dig the holes
Grand Teton Brewing Company - Forklift and head Brewer, Marks, to unload the trees
Trail Creek Nursery - Skidsteer and operator to load trees
Teton Timberframe - Skidsteer, flat bed trailer to haul trees, and Adam's strong back
City of Victor - Site prep and topsoil
Power's Excavation - Flat bed trailer to haul trees with
Mike Bessette from Frontier Landscaping - Full day of equipment operation and manual labor
Jay & Tracey Petervary - A full day of help from Victor's newsest residents
Mike Piker - Coming over from Jackson to help out
Jeremy Besbiris - Tree planting and process building
Victor Velo - Dave Byers & Scott Fitzgerald spearheading the operation
Fresh Cut Deli - Keeping us fed
Teton Mountain Ranch - Topsoil courtesy of Stephen Bagley

At the end of the day we planted almost 50 plant units! We'll be back at it Tuesday to finish off the job. If you have time to help please come on by. If you have any watering resources please let us know as the irrigation is off but we would like to soak the trees before winter.

Bike Park Landscaping Day

We have an incredible opportunity to landscape the beloved Bike Park before winter really sets in. This Saturday, October 10th, we will be hauling 50 trees and shrubs to Pioneer Park so we can get even closer to completing phase 1 of the Victor Bike Park project. We have a lot of people and organizations to thank for this effort:

Josh Thulin (owner of the Ponds Subdivision) - Donating all the Trees and Shrubs
Randy Blough (owner of Harmony Designs) - Donated the landscaping plan below
Valley Lumber - Donated equipment time and again for this project

Trail Creek Nursery - Donating equipment

*** We still need volunteers Saturday from 9am til ??***
If you want to come help lease show up to the Bike Park with a pair of work gloves anytime Saturday.
