Silver Lake Mountain Bike Trail System Grand Opening
Saturday, June 4, 2016
Approximately nine miles of professionally designed, purpose-built mountain bike trails have been built over the past two years in Silver Lake County Park. Construction, labor, and maintenance have been donated by members of the Silver Lake chapter of the Southeastern Wisconsin Trail Alliance (SEWTA) formally known as KORBA.
The event will begin at 12 PM. Food and beverages will be provided prior to the official "chain cutting" event at 1 PM by Kenosha County Executive Jim Kreuser. A series of fun rides will follow the official chain cutting ceremony.
In addition to the grand opening event, SEWTA will host young riders, ages 6 to 16, on June 4th for a youth mountain biking event. The ride is part of a nationwide celebration known as Take a Kid Mountain Biking Day, supported by the International Mountain Bicycling Association. Guided fun rides and discussion about safety and proper riding.
