First, a giant THANK YOU to everyone who participated in our raffle to raise funds for SALT ~ the Schoharie Area Long Term assistance for victims of Hurricaine Irene. 

It was a great success as we raised $1755 and had 13 ~ $25 winners and 1 ~ $50 winner!!  That left $1380 that we wrote a check for this morning and mailed to SALT for much needed assistance for well deserving people.  Your generosity is hugely appreciated!!  Thank you everyone.

 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.
