There
are a few BAD BUGS that are transported easily on
Firewood from other States and we do NOT want them
in our forests.
News from Harrisburg
and the USDA Forest Service is asking for our help
to prevent the spread of the “Ash Borer” that
could be deadly to our Ash trees.
This bug is known to be in
Michigan,
Ohio, Indiana
and
Ontario,
Canada
.
Also there is the “Asian Long-Horned Beetle”
that comes from
Illinois, New York,
New Jersey
and
Toronto, Canada
.
These
bugs have claimed more then 10 Million trees in Michigan
alone. Other
unwanted bugs are in the Eastern part of
Pennsylvania
that do not exist in the Western part of the
state.
The
Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture has a
quarantine on bringing ANY firewood into the state
of Pennsylvania and also has quarantined the 4-PA
counties of Beaver, Butler, Lawrence and
Allegheny. Violators can be fined or sentenced to
jail. Fines can reach $4,000.
PLEASE help
comply with this request as to protect our local
forests! Please

Q: What are the rules of the Park?
• Remember that you are a GUEST.
• No alcoholic beverages.
• Stay on marked trails or stay home.
• Any horseplay endangering other riders will NOT BE TOLERATED.
• No riding fast or spinning out in the Parking Area (we know that is hard for some as they think that this is
spectator sport and it is cool, but the majority of
others do NOT appreciate the dust, mud and stones being thrown at
them and their children, nor do we appreciate the damage that can be caused).
• No riding fast or spinning out in ANY grass area.
• Respect others.
• Tread lightly (help prevent ruts by NOT riding in the same path as the one in front of you. Try to straddle tracks when
possible. If there is already a deep rut on a curve or off-camber trail, do NOT try to straddle as it could cause you to tip or
rollover.)
