The Northeast Pennsylvania Mountain Bike Association has been building out the trail network at Moon Lake Park in Plymouth Township, PA.  But, on January 1st, budget cuts in the area forced park managers to close the park until April.

Fortunately, NEPMTBA members worked out a deal to open the gates to the park on weekends through March, giving them a couple of days each week to ride and work.  However, club members were quoted in a Times Leader article as saying it’ll slow down their plans to make the park a “destination” trail because the camping, restrooms and other facilities will remain closed until April. That limits the number of riders from coming in for a long weekend that would have otherwise stayed and further helping the local economy. Read the full article here.
