A great deal of planning and prep goes into a race. Come race weekend though everything happens fast and it’s the work of volunteers that allows all that planning to fall in place. The West Virginia Mountain Trail Runners want to thank those who have helped make a our events possible and we’re throwing a party in their honor. Now this isn’t just any party this is a WVMTR party! There will be a fine meal catered by the White Grass Cafe, live music and some of Mountain State Brewing Company’s finest beverages.
When – April 2, 2011
Where – Mountain State Brewing Company, Thomas, WV 
What time – 5PM – til late
This also by unusual coincidence happens to be the same day as the Highlands Trainer! So come out for the weekend and help thank our many race volunteers for the hours they donate so we can have fun.
Some folks planning to come for the weekend. Rooms and cabins at nearby Blackwater Falls State Park will be on Off Season Rates.
