Hey Gang,
Myself and some others on here are members of the Mid Missouri Mud Slingers group....the mission of that group is to maintain the Deep water riding area. MMMS uses grants, etc. to accomplish tasks set forth by the Corp of Engineers and the accomplishment of the tasks will guarantee the riding area will remain open for another 25 years per Federal Law.
The Mudslingers over the years has had the same very few folks do the work that has been needed and things are coming to a head very quickly.
The fence all around the parking lot and along the entrance road that runs to the boat launch is the last step of the grant. All of the fence is installed and the section that runs along the main road toward the boat launch needs to be primed and painted. This needs to be completed by July and MMMS could use some help!!!
Everyone likes to ride at Deep water but now is the time for us to help out if at all possible. Sat April 25th at 9am a meeting is planned on location at Deep water, we will go over the info and then proceed to get to work on the fence. Right now the plan is to knock out a few hours of work....and then do some riding. I don't think the work is going to be too hard, just doing some painting on a steel fence. If ya want to bring a brush or two, that's awesome.
We aren't asking for money...just a donation of some man power to assure the park remains open another 25 years!! MMMS has operated quietly in the background down at DW over the years to get things done and probably most don't know they even exist, but now that it's come down to only a small few folks doing the work so the rest of us can have fun, I would like to see em get some help!
Please, if you can spare some time that day, come on down and help out, spread the word to any other clubs you are a member of and let's see if we can't make some progress toward securing one of Missouri's great riding areas for several more years!
If you would like to check out the Mid Missouri Mudslinger's group go here. midmissourimudslingers.org/ If you can, please join them, but my goal here isn't for recruiting membership, my goal is to get some help to insure the riding area stays open for our enjoyment! They are a good bunch of folks trying to do a huge job for all our benefits.
