Volunteer Coaches
All of our coaches are volunteers, many of them traveling from a distance to be here this weekend. Some have finished Marji, and others have not. They’re here to share their experiences and help you get ready for Marji Gesick. Big thanks to the crew. Marji Camp couldn’t happen without you.

Please do not pre-ride anywhere on Marquette Mountain property. Their trails are not open to the public. You must have a season pass to ride trails on their property.
2019 Marji Camp Testimonial
“Everything was first class in typical Marji fashion. The organization was on point. The campground was awesome. The food was great (those sandwiches!!!). The speakers did a great job and were super helpful. I was spoiled and was in Danny’s group. I can’t imagine there is a better tour guide for those trails. I can’t think of one negative or anything I would have done differently. Kudos to you and your team. Great stuff, man. See you in September.”
It’s all about community.
