BMX News and Upcoming events

WOW!!! I can't believe that we are only 2 weeks away from out first Provincial race and it is only the middle of March. Provincial #1 and #2 will take place at the Olds Indoor Track on March 31st and April 1st. To find out the races schedule and to pre register for the race weekend you can check that out here.

Also don't forget about the Women's clinic going on at the Olds track tomorrow Saturday March 16th at 4:00pm. It is a $10 fee to ride or if you are from a supporting track then show your child's license to ride for free!!

Our beginners clinic is also fast approaching with the date set for May 5th. This is a great time for our new riders to try out the track and our previous riders to help show our new riders how much fun BMX is. With this being said... I am sure there will be a work bee, or two or three, before the beginners clinic to get the track groomed and ready to start racing. I will keep you posted on the date(s). Don't forget that work bee hours also count towards your track volunteer hours!!!

And just a reminder..... please make sure that when applying for your license that you also submit your membership as well. If you need help or have questions about anything dont hesitate to email me at danielle_tanika@hotmail.com.

March 31st and April 1st- Provincial Race #1 & #2 in Olds. Make sure you have your license applied for before these dates. If you have not had a chance to get out on the track yet, it is strongly encouraged that you do so as the indoor track is unlike any other track on the Provincial circuit.

hello everyone!!!

thought the season was over?? district points are collected until december 31st, so as long as red deer BMX can still host race nights we will be racing...as soon as the weather or setting sun become an issue then we will be closing the track down.

curious as to how many district points you or your rider has earned??
you can find all the points on the site under points or you can click on this link and go directly to the current as of september 15th district points chart. also, because i love making things as easy as possible for everyone...there is now a district points tab in our news page navigation bar :)
