Tomorrow's "Rhody Ramble" NETRA Turkey run in Rhode Island has been canceled at the last minute for "Land Issues". I heard from a fellow club member that some kind of environmental group was involved. Does anyone have the details?
In an email I received from a NETRA board member I was told it was because of DEP concerns. I'd like to know more myself....I'm not surprised though 'cause this is not the first event to be cancelled in RI beacuse of similar concerns.
I was told that the reason the turkey run was cancelled was because the DEP was upset about the trail damage done during the National Enduro (there were some deep ruts) that were never fixed and thius pulled the permit for the event. The club sponsoring the event disputes this but decided to cancel the turkey run to fix thge problem rather than jepordize the running of the enduro next year.
