IMBA – ARE YOU A MEMBER?

http://www.imba.com/canada/Each year at this time, IMBA Canada takes stock in what we have achieved. As 2008 draws to a close, we see ample cause to celebrate our many accomplishments, and to evaluate new opportunities for creating great riding experiences. Despite economic turbulence and change afoot in our political arenas, we are certain that IMBA is poised for unprecedented success in the months ahead.  

We passionately believe that your donation will bring substantial results for you and your community. Please include IMBA Canada in your year-end giving to fuel our work that results in more new places to ride in 2009!

IMBA is sending our professional trailbuilders far and wide to help build quality singletrack. At the same time, we are revitalizing our club support programs to ensure that local affiliates can thrive. We know that trails build communities and that communities build trails, so we are investing in both!

I’m asking you to make a gift to IMBA Canada’s Annual Fund today to develop the trails of tomorrow. Your generous donation to this year’s Canadian Annual Fund will help accomplish this work:

   * Build mountain biking destinations that provide exceptional riding experiences with cross-country trail networks, downhill courses, freeride terrain and jump parks.

   * Actively pursue bicycle-friendly land conservation and funding legislation in Ottawa, and at the provincial and regional levels. 

   * Grow IMBA’s professional trails program, which is poised to place the world’s best trail designers literally in your backyard to develop extensive riding opportunities.

   * Help mountain bikers overcome the obstacles to new trails by working proactively with land managers, developing local funding and educating their local government decision makers.

Our work ensures you can enjoy outstanding trails close to home and on your travels. But let’s face it, too many mountain bikers still don’t have access to appealing trails.

That’s why we need your year-end support . Your donation will help us make 2009 our best year ever—a year of better riding for all. Better yet, it will keep you on your bike, riding great trails close to home. Now that’s an investment we can all bank on!

Best wishes and thanks,

Mark Schmidt
Executive Director
International Mountain Bicycling Association (Canada)
