From left: RoseAnne Featherston, Steve Buckman, Sheryn Munro and Robbie Harris. This is a beginner novice size portable table top jump. The jump behind us is a novice size log roll top.

Revetted wall complete. Steve's dog "Bob" in the foreground. This arrangement of "cribbing" behind the wall is what gives it it's strength.

Laying out the water jump liner. Clockwise from top: Sheryn Munro, Steve Buckman (in yellow rainsuit), Adam Munro, Tom Cain, Brian Atwood, Karen Murphy, John Fox. Cherry Fox is out of camera range...

Linda Cain laying down on the job. We had to hold the liner down somehow, it was getting windy!

Gravel laid on the approach ramp. Steve Buckman and John Fox installing the drain and overflow pipe fittings.

Revetted wall backfilled and liner in place.

Sheryn worked every day on this project. Thanks Sheryn, you're a star!

Starting to lay the gravel footing.

We have water in the water jump! The gravel footing was laid on Wednesday, and this photo was taken on Saturday, after a record rainfall on Thursday, October 17, 2003. The facing boards are almost complete on the revetted wall.

Gravel footing finally laid down. Robbie says, "Sheryn, are we really done? I think I have hypothermia!"

Novice/Training Ditch.  It's NOT supposed to have water in it, that will be remedied this spring when the two smaller ditch jumps are built.
