Survey says….the 1st 2 loops of Haymaker get to stay open in the winter. Thanks for all the support!

Help! They are trying to close even more of Haymaker in the winter 😡

There is a real chance we are going to lose access to the 2nd Loop of Haymaker in the winter tomorrow night (Tuesday 11/14). Read all about it and join us at the Town Council Meeting Tuesday night: https://mailchi.mp/657036e59ab5/haymakermayclose-9090672?e=9ae76be2e7

Last Call to take the Town of Eagle Open Space Management Plans Survey. Please be sure to like 'maintaining the status quo' on Haymaker. We've already closed 99% of our trails including the 3rd and 4th loops of Haymaker. Keeping loops 1 & 2 open is a reasonable compromise that protects wintering wildlife while enabling humans to recreate for physical and mental health. Here's the survey link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Z365ZSM

Please join us at the Open House next week and help us keep the 1st 2 loops of Haymaker open in the winter!

Action Alert!

Do you care about having winter recreation access on Haymaker? Please come to the Town of Eagle Open House on October 18th from 4:30-6:30 at Brush Creek Pavillion. This management decision should reflect the community's desire to have winter recreation. We know it's important to you to be able to get outside and we've been advocating but unless you show up, you loose the ability to weigh in. The Town of Eagle is considering the following:

• Keeping the management status quo - 1st and 2nd loop are open December 15-April 1st
• Putting in a full seasonal closure on the 1st and 2nd loop December 15-April 15 to protect wintering wildlife - we loose access to BLM that is open in the winter
• Keeping the 1st loop open, retaining access to the BLM, and closing the 2nd loop to protect wintering wildlife

As the community grows over the next 10 years, we believe it's important to have designated winter recreation areas for people to get outside. If you agree, please let the town know either in person or by scanning the QR code on the flyer. Thanks!

Join us at Boneyard on Tuesday We can answer questions and talk about what all these things mean to the future of recreation in Eagle!

Do you want e-bikes on Eagle Trails? Now that I've got your attention, please join us at Boneyard Restaurant in Eagle on Tuesday August 8th from 6:00-7:30. The first drink is on HTC and we want to hear your thoughts on the issue.

We hope you will then take the Town of Eagle survey on winter recreation, e-bike, and motorized access on our open space. These are all really important issues to our trails community and there's a lot of information to consider. HTC Board Members and VVMTA Staff will be there to answer all of your questions.

This survey will impact the decision making process, so please make sure your opinion is included! The survey is open until August 18, 2023. Following the survey, draft plans will be available for public review and comment later this summer.
