Vote ‘FOR’ the county sales and use tax THE FACTS: – The tax will fund worker housing and transportation projects. – The amount of tax you pay will NOT increase. – Visitors pay roughly 2/3 of general sales tax. This is not a blank check: Both the town and county have created a special revenue […]

Get pumped! Friends of Pathways is bringing a modular pump track to Jackson Hole Middle School as part of bike skills week. Open to every one of all ages and abilities from dawn to dusk on Tuesday, May 21 and Wednesday, May 22.
Come ride! Sorry, no e-bikes allowed, please.
Track will be set up near the soccer fields at JHMS.
Every year for the last 4 years Friends of Pathways visits Jackson Hole Middle School to teach bike safety in an assembly setting and outside using a bike skills course. The curriculum focuses heavily on e-bike safety. Friends of Pathways organizes this fun and educational program for 6th, 7th, and 8th graders in response to growing public concern regarding pathway safety, specifically as it relates to e-bike usage and middle school students.
Friends of Pathways has recently hired Aaron Nydam as our Bike Safety Coordinator who assists in our efforts to provide pathway etiquette and e-bike education to our youth, visitors, and residents alike.
These photos are from this week’s bike safety assembly, and next week FOP will be back at Jackson Hole Middle School to teach bike skills outside with kids on bikes.
We love how many kids ride bikes to school and encourage them to do so safely.
The snow this week didn’t do us any favors drying out the trails. A few more things are opening up and passable but there is still some lingering packed snow and drifts in the shade. As you get excited for summer come by the Bike Swap this Saturday at The Hub Bicycles from 10-1. Otherwise enjoy some much deserved sunshine this weekend!
