Community Giving

Come out to Community Trail Work Day DINNER this July 2nd, at 4 to 7pm with dinner at 7pm catered by Lively Life! Also come walk on Teddy’s Trail sponsored by Lively Life through Crested Butte Mountain Bike Association.

Love for Mountain Biking

I love mountain biking! I got my first mountain bike in University, my friends took me to a bike shop – I picked out a blue bike cause that’s my favorite color. Then we rode the mountain bike trails all over the …Niagara Escarpment* that goes through Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. I have always had a mountain bike since and now I am lucky enough to live in Crested Butte, Colorado where my husband is on the Crested Butte Mountain Bike Association CBMBA – which happens to be the oldest mountain bike association started in 1983.

So every year for the past 4 years, Lively Life have catered food for a CBMBA Work Day event. Last year there were about 50 people and luckily my friends helped making chocolate chip cookies, chips and helped serve. Past events have been Long Lake, Farris Creek, and last year was 403 downhill on Gothic side with KBUT also sponsors for that one.

Come for the CBMBA Community, stay for Lively Life’s Dinner

This year – it will be July 2nd, the location is still to be determined. My friends are coming out to volunteer again! So please come out and support the Work Day by volunteering July 2nd to build another trail or update a current trail for mountain biking and hiking.

This year we will be serving Beef or Chicken or Vegetarian (Sweet potato, bean, corn) Burritos with lots of vegetables. I love adding cucumber & onion, and cabbage coleslaw mix as well as fried peppers, zucchini and onions ontop of my burritos, along with sour cream, salsa, guacamole and chocola? Come enjoy community work day and an a fun social event with CBMBA.

Lively Life also sponsors Teddy’s Trail through CBMBA so please go and enjoy the wildflowers, this is an easy trail for everyone – there is a small section of slope up to the trail, then it flattens out (while flat for mountain town) and if you want to continue to hike it connects to Snodgrass Trail.

Community is important everywhere, it gives us a sense of belonging, getting to know our neighbors and create friendships that make life memorable.

What do you do in your community? How do you like to get involved, or how would you like to get involved where you live? Growing up my family did through school, church, sports. Sports has continued to be a huge part of my community where ever I have lived including Ultimate Freebie, Squash, Two-Pitch (kinda of like baseball but your own team mate pitches to you, to spend up the game) and mountain biking. As I moved to the Rocky Mountains – it included all types of skiing, mountain biking, and hiking mostly.

Please come support CBMBA Community Trail Work Day DINNER July 2nd from 4-8pm. Thank you!
