Some of the scheduled activities for the day:

* people who wish to ride the track must sign a waiver and pay a separate $8 fee to track. You must also wear a helmet, long sleeves and pants and abide by the tracks rules.

What else to expect:

As anyone can attest that has ever been to one of this site's events... the BMX Society's Reunion & Show is truly BMX nirvana. People literally come from around the world. You see the best bikes, hangout with the coolest people, rub elbows with the stars of racing, freestyle and the industry.

It's a really important day for people who relish BMX culture. You will enjoy it. That's a guarantee.

The track will be offering hotdogs, maybe burgers and other snacks and drinks. If you want to bring a cooler / packed lunch - feel free.

Come prepared with plenty of drinking water. It will almost certainly be a sunny so-cal day, so stay hydrated and happy.

Also... bring sun screen for you and your kids. This is a family friendly event. All are welcome, but please keep an eye on your kids and don't let them get jelly on somebody's $500 og pad set, or knock over a row of priceless show builds. :wink:

People who wish to mail in payment please remember:

• Mention shirt size!!!!
• Include your full name clearly printed
• User name here on the site if you have one.
• Your full mailing address.

Send to:
BMX Society Old School Show 2011
2410 Arizona St.
Hutchinson, KS 67502

Pre-reg mail ins must be post marked on or before May 14th!

What is the advantage of pre-registration? That's the only way that this event can support itself. There will likely not be any other sponsors this year. Beyond you guys who are supportive enough to register - I personally pay for everything else.

Also it REALLY helps us better prepare for the size of the crowd and we appreciate it. However, it is also a better value. Registering the day of the event on site will be more costly.

If you want a shirt please pre-register. We will have a limited number of shirts available the day of the event, but we ALWAYS sell out. Last year we sold out at 11 am. Pre-register to guarantee that you get what you want.

Thank you. Please pick up your registration packet at the BMX Society booth the morning of June, 4th at Bellflower BMX

The event will open at 8:30 am. People taking part in the judged bike show must pick up their registration pack and have their bikes set up for judging by 10:30 am.The bikes will be judged from 10:30 am to 12:30pm.

jbros...I think Carlsbad would be about an hour south of Bellflower...maybe 1 1/2.

I can't wait...the flyer looks awesome! I definitely want one of those.
