Women's+ Dig Day: Fanny's Your Aunt
About this event
🛠️ NMBC Women’s+ Dig Day: Fanny’s Your Aunt
Hosted by Maddy
Join Maddy and the crew in the woods for a morning of trail building, connection, and community!
This Women’s+ Dig Day welcomes everyone who identifies as a woman, transgender, nonbinary, or gender diverse. It’s a supportive, low-pressure space to learn trail work, ask questions, and meet other riders. Whether you’ve never held a McLeod or you’ve built a dozen berms, you belong here.

Weather Policy
In true Island fashion, we dig in the rain, but not in atmospheric rivers. If there’s a major storm or high-wind warning, we’ll postpone. If you don’t hear from us, grab your rain gear and we’ll see you there!
