It looks like Daniel Dhers has decided to shut down the Animal House, which he took ownership from Dave Mirra a few years back. Daniel plans on re-opening a new park outside of Greenville. However, before the doors close for the last time, it sounds like there’s going to be one last banger of a contest to go down! You can find out all the info below!
“The Goodbye Jam &
Daniel Dhers Action Sports Complex
Press Release: September 29th, 2013
The weekend of October 26th and 27th, 2013 I will be hosting a Goodbye Jam at the Animal House in Greenville, NC as I prepare for the next chapter of my life and the opening of my first ever Action Sports Complex in Holly Springs, NC. This pro/am contest will celebrate the ending of an era, in one of the greatest facilities that has ever existed in BMX, and the beginning of a new one.
This Goodbye Jam will be the last opportunity for all riders, pro or am, to enjoy the infamous Animal House in Greenville, NC. We will begin breaking down the ramps shortly after the contest. I will also host a much needed riders meeting, for all pros, to propose and discuss some ideas to help improve our current judging and scoring system, as well as, our contest format which has been so controversial in the past. Ultimately, we will present our ideas to the sports organizers for contests worldwide to help improve our sport and have a more refined judging/scoring system that will allow BMX to grow exponentially.
January 2014, the first ever Daniel Dhers Action Sports Complex will be opening in Holly Springs, NC. This complex will be a family oriented facility where riders of all ages and skill levels can enhance their abilities in unity under the care and supervision of a knowledgeable staff. The park, designed and built by Nate Wessel, will be a 37,000 sq. ft. indoor/outdoor riding facility for BMX, Mountain Biking and Skateboarding with 20,000 sq. ft. inside and 17,000 sq. ft. outside.
Please stay tuned for more information regarding the contest, riders meeting, tentative schedule, and hotel accommodations. For any other questions or concerns, please contact me via Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/DanielDhersOfficialPage“
