Trail Report
01/11/22 - Our trails are shaping up nicely. The guys have been out on a regular basis and have been able to groom everything but the Birchdale trail. They just haven’t been able to open it up with this extreme cold we have been having. They are hoping to get it started soon though. The guys also plan to groom their part of the lake green staked trail this week. We have heard good reports from other area clubs and businesses, this means we should have some great riding ahead of us. Get out and enjoy the trails but remember to ride safe and join a club.
If you are interested in getting involved with our local snowmobile club come join us for our monthly meetings. The next one will be held on January 18th at the VFW banquet room at 6:00 pm.
