So Dirt Days is happening April 27th through the 30th this year. This is the fourth annual Dirt Days. I actually attended my first Dirt Days last year just as somebody who had never been on a side-by-side and saw what was going on and wanted to check it out. This is my first year doing Dirt Days with the CVB office and right now we're at the Mub Pit where we have drag strip racing, they have the Mub Pits over here that they've been doing the last few years and then we're also adding in a few new features this year as well like the Rock Crawl and some other things that we have in the pipeline that we're not announcing just yet but yeah it's a it's a UTV, ATV event. In addition to the new Rock Crawl the city will be installing new lighting to ensure the off-roading can continue once the sun sets. I mean tourism that's that's what we have to work with now. Tourism is you know the growing industry across you know the state of West Virginia and we need to bring people back to small towns you know a lot of these towns have been dependent on coal for so long and you know that's moving out. Tourism provides jobs it provides money for small business owners and our lodge owners things like that it's going to put revenue back into the city in the county so it's important for all those things and it's good to just get people out of the house I think everybody's ready to just start doing stuff since you know we all had a few years of COVID being stuck in the house so I think this is important for everybody too.
