Gillies Creek Park track can now resume normal operations after the extended outage that volunteers say cost them thousands of dollars in spoiled food and lost concession sales.
When CBS 6 reached out to city leaders about the situation, they explained that the part needed to restore power was on back order.
The power restoration comes just in time as the track prepares to host the Virginia State BMX Series in two weeks.
Volunteers had reported that their calls to the city about the power outage led them nowhere before our inquiry.
