Well,
as I write this newsletter the weatherman is calling for
snow melting temps. We
have had a GREAT year for our sport!
The club has put many gallons of diesel fuel through
the groomer. A
few members spent a couple of their Saturday’s to put on
wiener roasts, and there were a couple of local club rides.
We also had a wonderful turnout for the Winter Raffle
event at Spirits. We
were glad to see so many there!
I do have to mention one disappointing thing.
That is the few members on our roster for the club.
With all of the snowmobiles seen out on the trails as
I was riding the trails and grooming them we have only 72
memberships. We
did get some new members from the Winter Raffle and the
wiener roasts.
In the late `90’s we have had over 90
memberships. So
PLEASE join a club! If
you ride with others ask them if they are members anywhere.
Also if you were a member in the past make sure that
you have renewed your membership.
We send out membership forms the beginning of each
season. That is
when your dues are expected to be in.
That way you will be assured not to miss an issue of
the WSN magazine, and you AWSC Insurance coverage will be
valid for the whole upcoming season (not just a portion.) On
a different note…22 other snowmobilers lost their lives
this year. According to the DNR website as of Feb. 19th
there were 22 that had past away, many of which involved
speed and alcohol.
Here are some reasons for you to attend our
March Meeting. 1.
Get your Dodge county Association of snowmobile clubs
Scholarship forms. 2.
Find out how well the club did at the Winter Jam. 3. Learn
how many hours were put on the groomer.
4. Find out what went on at the AWSC Convention.
5. Nominate some one for office or BOD’s, or accept
a nomination. 6. Trade stories of your trail adventures. 7. Talk
about how you may have met some new people. 8.
Talk about the sled that you had seen and thought it
would be nice if it was yours.
9. Gather with some friends. And Number 10, eat some
good food and enjoy some beverages. SO
as usual, I hope to see you at the club meeting, and bring a
friend!
See
you soon!
