If the person who is creating new lines and adding new features (jumps) to the trail is on this board please stop!!!
The mid-state chapter has an excellent working relationship with Ingham County Parks and we would not like to ruin that based on rogue building at the park. There have been some recent addtions over the last year and not all of them are up to the building standards of the park. The latest edition is a jump that was placed in Annie’s Playhouse. Early in the spring there were several reroutes added to sections of the trail that made no sense what so ever. Someone has also been moving some of the ground ladders to make additional stunts.The chapter is planning to reevaluate all of the existing structures over the winter months. Some may need to be dismantled based on their conditions. Hopefully, we will be adding new features in their place if that is the case. As part of our agreement with the park the TC checks all of the trail features once and month and has to fill out paperwork to prove it. If someone is putting in random unapproved features this puts us at risk of losing what we have. If you would like to help with building or have suggestions for the current trail we would be more than happy to hear your concerns. Just don’t take building into your own hands!!!!!
