Opposition has come from persons with interests in preserving the current status of the property.  Their objections have been addressed by the town representatives in prior public meetings

What can you do?

We need you to speak out in support of this very valuable project.  Your input is critical.  Those public figures who are the ultimate decision makers weigh the public comments not only by their passion and rational coherency, but also by their volume.  Naturally, those who oppose things are motivated to speak out and organize against that thing.  We need those of us that are for it to avoid complacency and to speak up, too.

Attend the Open Forum design public hearing at the Victor Town Hall, 85 East Main Street, Victor, on April 29, 2010.

  The public is invited to come anytime between from 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., to view project displays, ask questions of the design team, submit written comments, or individually provide verbal comments to a stenographer.

Sincerely,

Mark Rosenzweig
Advocacy Co-chair, GROC

Sad news for our community

Sample Image
GROC mourns the tragic and sudden loss of Elliott Eklund from a snowboarding accident that ocurred at Bristol Mountain on Wednesday evening, February 16th.  Elliott was admired and loved by those who got to know him as a great husband, father and friend.  Many of us had the honor of knowing him through riding and we enjoyed also his generous and cheerful nature as he volunteered for GROC on trails and other activities.  He loved spending time with his sons, Ansel, Matthias, Rigel, his daughter, Maren, and his wife, Marla.

The 2010 Fat Tire Festival will be dedicated to Elliott in memory of all the effort and support that he and his family have given to the mountain biking community, and their countless hours of volunteer work at Dryer Road Park and OCP.
 
Address of family:
Mrs. Marla Eklund
34 Jackson Road Extension
Penfield, NY   14526
 
We will pass on details as we learn of them in regards to any calling hours and funeral arrangements.
 
Please keep his family in your hearts and minds while they deal with this tragedy.


 

D&C Article On GROC Supporting Mountain Biking in Local Schools

Penfield provides new adventures in gym class
Leo Roth • November 12, 2009

Penfield's Jonathan Brown, an avid mountain biker, envisions a community where trails in Monroe County and town-owned parks are all designated "shared usage.''


Where bikers, hikers, joggers and dog-walkers all get along. Where those who use the parks become advocates, not adversaries.


And while it may be impossible to convince all adults of the benefits of this philosophy, kids are another story.

how any town can become bike friendly

"An interesting video story (below) about how Boulder has become a super bike friendly community.  I would love to see our town/city and area in general continue to move in this direction for health, safety and tourism promotion (and of course fun!)". Peter Landre
