TRAILS ARE CLOSED FOR THE SEASON

 

The snowmobile trails are now closed for the season ~ we can only hope for more snow next winter!!  Please remember to do your part and become informed on the workings of our club.  We are running out of energy and need new people that like to work.  If you have time to ride that snowmobile when the snow falls, please remember to do your share to get the trails ready for that ride.  Trail preparation does not just happen by itself as some of you may have seen this year with some of our trails still needing trimming, new signs, cleaning of downfallen trees and brush and bridges needing repair, and such.  Please remember that no one gets paid for their work, we are all volunteers. 

 

 

RESPECT THE TRAILS AND ESPECIALLY THE LANDOWNERS ~ ATV'S AND FOUR-WHEELERS AND DIRT BIKES ARE NEVER ALLOWED ON THE TRAILS. 

 

 

 

Have a good summer.

 CURRENTLY THERE ARE ONLY A HANDFUL OF WORKERS DOING OVER 100 PLUS MILES OF TRAILS, USING CHAINSAWS AND A LOT OF AMBITION!  ~  THEY NEED ANY AND ALL THE HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE ~ SNOWMOBILING IS MORE THAN JUST BELONGING TO A CLUB ~ PLEASE DO YOUR PART ~ EVEN IF YOU DO NOT LIVE IN THE AREA, YOU CAN PLAN A WORKDAY WITH MEMBERS THAT DO LIVE HERE ~ plan a weekend upstate and participate in a workday, perhaps even a bonfire afterwards ~ this season, we will be building/repairing bridges and re-routing old trails that are shut down due to permission issues.There are also volunteers needed for doing paper work and gps. Everyone knows someone and perhaps you can help just by gaining permissions ~ IF YOU CAN HELP WITH THE TRAILS, PLEASE CONTACT ONE OF OUR OFFICERS ~ CONTACT INFO IS ON THE SECOND PAGE OF THIS WEBSITE ~ BE SURE TO RESPECT THE LANDOWNERS AT ALL TIMES OF THE YEAR ~ WITHOUT THE LANDOWNER, THERE ARE NO TRAILS ~ THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO ATV'S ALLOWED ON OUR TRAILS AT ANY TIME
