Attention Parents of Minor Children!

A copy of the child's birth certificate and signatures of both BIRTH PARENTS are required for all minor children (anyone under 18-years old). Birth certificate MUST show the names of both BIRTH PARENTS.  If only one parent accompanies the minor child to the BMMS Park, then the absent parent MUST sign the Minor Release Form and have their signature notarized. Otherwise, the minor child WILL NOT be permitted to use the Park's trails.  Please furnish photocopy of both parents' drivers license.  There are NO EXCEPTIONS to this rule.

Also Please Note:
Due to circumstances beyond our control all birth certificates must show BIRTH PARENTS' names on the birth certificate or minor children will NOT be allowed to ride at the Park. If one Parent is deceased we need a copy of the Death Certificate.

Please make sure that you review your birth certificate to ensure the required information is listed. If you have any questions regarding a minor child being able to ride, please call the Park at (828) 635-7766 and we will do our best to answer your questions.



Attention ATV Riders!
