It’s freezing rain and I’m looking at more grass and mud than I am snow. The season is over for our area. A big THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us throughout this season. The encouraging comments and thumbs up from riders have made it worth the work. It’s been an eventful season from start to finish, and it’s only getting better. Everyone is super happy to have gotten a new tractor in time to get some use out of it before the snow left, and it has everyone excited for next year already. Even though the snowmobile season has ended, we will still be working throughout the year on much needed trail maintenance. We have some big projects that need to get accomplished, on top of a significant amount of grading and brushing.
Thanks again to everyone for your support and enjoying our area. The new tractor is polished up and put away until next season. Without the club currently having a barn, our club president was nice enough to let us store it in his until we hopefully get one built before next winter
