Saturday October 29th, will be the Ottawa BMX Halloween Race and unfortunately will also be our last racing event for the season.
Everyone is more than welcome to dress up for this event, but please make sure that costumes are safe for racing.
It would be greatly appreciated if members can bring a small donation of candy which we would like to distribute to all the kids in our traditional on the track style.  The kids love it and we hope to make this another memorable end of season event.
