the rail jam on the 6th and 20th are sponsored  by ride sports which is in New Berlin. There are two different types of rail jam's this season. The R&B Series and the Thursday night shop sponsored rail jam's. The Shop ones should have good prizes. By the 20th the park should be open so there should be a good set up for that one.

it should be very good on the 20th. They had sort of a small turn out this week. But from what i had heard the set up was really nice and smooth and everyone liked it. Which made me happy considering the time I spent Wednesdays night Building everything. The next one should be even better with different Rails and a better set up.

how much money does it cost to enter the jam. and is it true if you have a pass to sunburst you get half priced lift tickets? I heard that last statement from a kid who works there. I hope it is true cause then i might just make the trip down.

I belive its 15 to enter the rail jam. Iam not sure about the whole thing with your pass from sunburst if that works. I would call wilmot to ask about it. As far as prizes and what they where i can find out tommorrw when iam out there. I'm sure it will be worh it and fun.

The set up which we built friday night is pretty sick.

a quick question. 
I just saw the wilmot web page and I noticed that it said Inspiration, Chair 6 is open. I know that the jumps are supposed to be on that run. So my question is, are the jumps up? I hope, yes.

I'm hoping there will be more stuff out. I'm going to try to go out there tommorrw night and build more stuff for thursday night. no jumps on Inspiration yet there wasn't enough snow and we didn't have enough time. but Inspiration is going to be the jump park.

4 out of the 5 parks are open. I havn't been out there since last wedensday night. We set up the big Urban Rail that night/ I know they set out a bunch of rails since i have been there. the only park not open is the jump park. Which I'm hopeing to get started on wedensday and thursday night.
