SUMMARY:Marmaton Massacre Mountain Bike Race\, Gunn Park Trails\, September 16-17th
DESCRIPTION:Marmaton Massacre Mountain Bike Race\, Gunn Park Trails\, September 16-17th\n\n\n\nBelow per FortScott.biz:\n\n \n\nSubmitted photos.\n\n\nSome of the region's fastest mountain bikers will be in Fort Scott for the 10th Anniversary of the Marmaton Massacre Festival\, on Gunn Park Trails\, the weekend of September 16th & 17th. \n\nRace promoter and trail steward Frank Halsey is proud of what his team of volunteers has accomplished over the past ten years. \n\n"Our event attracts all types of riders from the region\, professionals as well as beginners\," he said.  "Lots of riders prefer our hand-built trails over the machine-built trails in popular areas such as northwest Arkansas\, we just don't have enough mileage to be a destination trail."\n\nThe Festival begins Saturday\, with some participants arriving on Friday\, to prepare for the Saturday Marathon Race\, which is as many miles as possible in a three-hour timeframe.  Sunday events will consist of the age and ability Category Races. \n\nHalsey encourages locals to grab their lawn chairs and join us in the park for the Saturday evening festivities which will include a performance by the Fort Scott High School Orchestra at 5:30 pm\, followed by the always popular little kids race\, and live music by the Pittsburg band\, Left of Center.  Sharky's Pub & Grub will be providing food truck services.\n\n \n\n"Mountain bike racing is not really a spectator sport\, but my goal for this event has been to bring riders to our beautiful city and park\, while providing locals an opportunity to have a relaxing evening in our beautiful Gunn Park\," Halsey said.  "None of this would be possible without our awesome volunteers and local sponsors including\, Cheney Witt Funeral Home\, CrawKan\, Southwind Cycle & Outdoor\, Sonic\, Typhoon Bay\, Union State Bank\, Ward Kraft\, RPS Benefits\, and Mid-Continental Restoration." \n\nFor more info: https://www.bikereg.com/61371
