One Week Left!
Tickets are selling FAST!
Friday Feb. 6th, 7pm
Don't miss it! One week of ticket sales left for the banquet! Febuary 6th at the St Julian Hotel! We hope you can make it!
For the past four years, BMA has gathered together to enjoy a night out on the town. We leave the bike clothes behind, dress up, reflect on the last year, and get rallied for the coming bike season. We invite you - our members and supporters, City Council, County Commissioners, public land managers, bike & recreation industry folks to enjoy each other's company as well as a tasty sit-down dinner prepared and served by the St Julien staff.
Most importantly, all proceeds go to accomplishing BMA's mission... "Better Trails for Boulder County". With your support we can capitalize on the many excellent opportunities coming our way in the next 18 months.
As if that's not enough, the evening includes live and silent auctions for great items, and tons of door prizes. On the slate this year are exotic vacation & adventure packages and of course a ton of cool bike stuff donated by businesses that care about what we do. Check out a few pictures here!
A BMA tall boy glass and plenty of Oskar Blues fine beer will be on tap as a part of your admission. Tickets are $75 and are purchased online or at Rocky Mounts.
This is the last week for ticket sales! Do not wait!!

Call for Volunteers
Silent Auction Needs Help!
The BMA Banquet is right around the corner, and we need volunteers to help run the silent auction. This is the biggest BMA fundraiser of the year, and a couple hours of your time will help everything go smoothly so BMA looks like a bunch of rock stars and so we make the most out of the donated items.
We need volunteers both for auction setup (staging items with bid sheets 4:00-5:30), and for auction checkout (organize and distribute items, take payment 9:00-11:00)
Please contact Andria Bilich (boulderfuzz@gmail.com) if you're willing to step up for this important event. Also, please contact Andria if you've got a wireless Internet-enabled laptop that you can loan out for the evening (so BMA can do credit card transactions). Volunteers will be compensated with some cool swag and free beer!
