| Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate this past season but we were not lounging around in a Lazyboy. We had 2 new drag hitches made plus a plow for a Bombi and continue the enormous project of rebuilding our Bombardier SW48 Groomer from the ground up. Once the SW 48 is up and going that will put 4 large machine on the trails plus the 2 Scandic snowmobile drags. This means we will need more operators, are you interested? If so please contact Rick Collins at 892-2202. Several of the operators have completed the State Groomer Operator Certificate Program. Currently we have 4 certified operators with a goal to have each operator certified by the 2010-2011 season. While pulling all of the stakes and signs we inspected each bridge. Unfortunately we found that the heavy rains and high water over the winter damaged many of them and will need repair or replacement for next season. It will be more important then ever to grow the membership since the State does not provide much of our funding. If you have a neighbor or friend that has a sled and who enjoys riding our trails, please ask them to become a member. Their membership will help fund the replacement of several bridges, signs, stakes, mechanical repairs, and fuel for the groomers. All of this is done by volunteers!!!! For all of you who saw the message regarding a possible ITS trail connector running through town it is still being worked on. The MSA is working on getting all towns along the new route on board. We will be continue making improvements along the route just as if it was coming to town! We are also working on the possibility of adding a couple new trails for 2010-2011, stay tuned! |
| Thank You to all who came to visit us at SUMMERFEST 2010!!! It was a great day all the way around from weather to having fun!! The Jr's had fun with the float, the Groomer booth was a success, and a special Thank You to all who supported the club at the food booth or bought glow sticks!! |
| Exciting News!!!! As some of you know, we have been looking to purchase our 3rd Bombi since sometime last fall. We've looked at more then a dozen machines and finally found and purchased one in excellent condition, it was worth the wait! On July 3rd Mike and Rick drove 3 1/2 hours to Goshen, NH to bring it home. It was owned by a private individual that obviously took great pride in his machine. With this purchase we now have 3 Bombi's to groom with. We hope to have the SW 48 rebuilt for this season but even so we are great shape for the 2010-2011 season!! The 3 machines will have about 15 miles of trail each to groom and once the SW 48 is in operation each machine will have 11 miles. We now on a given night could have 6 pieces of equipment on the trails grooming, provided we have the people to do so. If you are interested in grooming please contact Rick Collins or Mike Constantine. |
