Town of North Elba Celebrates Grand Opening of the North Elba Community Pump Track

Lake Placid, NY — The Town of North Elba is excited to invite residents and visitors to celebrate the official Grand Opening of the North Elba Community Pump Track on Tuesday, August 4, at 4:45 p.m.

The new pump track is a fun, inclusive recreational space designed for riders of all ages and skill levels. Whether you’re an experienced cyclist or trying a pump track for the first time, the community is encouraged to come out, celebrate, and experience this exciting new addition to North Elba’s outdoor recreation offerings.

The grand opening ceremony will include brief remarks recognizing the many partners and individuals who helped make the project possible, followed by the official ribbon cutting and an opportunity for riders to be among the first to enjoy the track.

This project has been funded by a grant from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), Adirondack Park Community Smart Growth Program through appropriations from the New York State Environmental Protection Fund (EPF). The Town of North Elba extends its sincere appreciation for the DEC’s support of this project through grant funding and its continued commitment to expanding outdoor recreation opportunities throughout our communities.

The track was designed and installed by Adirondack resident Maxwell Van Wie of Backslope Trail Building.

“This pump track is an exciting investment in our community that promotes healthy lifestyles, outdoor recreation, and provides another destination for families and visitors to enjoy,” said Rick Preston, Town Supervisor. “We’re grateful to the NYS DEC and everyone who helped bring this vision to life.”
