[SkateDC] Wilson Bridge Trail Opening Skate - June 6

[Carl Ford]

   One clarification. We are skating along the Virginia side on the  
way down and on the way back.  This removes the PITA of the stream  
portage and will allow more skaters to make the full trip, since the  
skate will be fairly flat.

"The Democrats are the party that says government will make you  
smarter, taller,
richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. The Republicans are the party
that says government doesn't work and then they get elected and prove it."
