Midwest Mtb Fest
After Dirt Party with the Crew
SAVE THE DATE: June 20 | 5 - 10 p.m.
Location: TBA
FREE & OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Let’s celebrate what makes Cuyuna great! The community, trails, and the volunteers who continue to shape what our area has become. That’s right. These trails are volunteer-maintained with some assistance from our two DNR officers on state land.
This event is the Crew's only current fundraiser of the year. It's the Saturday night party for the Midwest Mountain Bike Fest, whose vendors are donating some cool prizes for a silent auction. The event directly supports trail work and gives you a chance to win gear, experiences, and getaway prizes donated by Midwest Mountain Bike Festival vendors and local businesses. It’s going to be the best weekend on and off two wheels in Cuyuna!
