It always seems to amaze me how short our snowmobile season really is, it was only weeks ago I was commenting of our shakedown ride, now March is around the corner and were nearing the end of our season. At the beginning of the season the snow gods where not very good to us, several […]
Id Like to thank the members that volunteered their time and energy over the last few months helping with everything that was needed. I (we) really appreciate it. With most of the hard work out of the way, the snowmobile season has finally arrived with a bang. The Shakedown ride was canceled, it was a […]
Ok then, I’ve completed the preseason check list, greased both front and rear suspensions, topped off all the fluids, and warmed up the engine. The only thing left now is to sit back and wait for the weather get cold and the first flakes to fall. With the Shakedown ride just weeks away, many of […]
Well, as the weeks have past since our annual general membership meeting in September, I’m still overwhelmed being elected as our clubs sixth president. It’s an honor and privilege to be elected by YOU the general membership. One can only hope he can up hold the aims and goals of our founding club members, and […]
December 16th, 2009 Yeehaa. That’s the only way to describe my excitement as I look at the winter storm forecast while making last minute preparations for the Shakedown Ride.

October 26th, 2009 By now you should have received the latest edition of the Snomad Magazine. A tremendous thanks to Brian Wright and his daughter Jamie for tackling this huge task. The magazine is a valuable link to our members that keeps folks informed of club matters and events. The new format is crisp and […]
June 29th, 2009 Yes, you read that right. For the first time in a long time, the President’s Message is being prepared by somebody other than Ron Schroeder. After seven years at the helm of the Snomads Snofari Club, Ron has decided to turn over the reigns and focus his efforts on work and family […]
January 6th, 2009 2008, what an historic year it was. On the Fourth of July, I filled up the boat with gas and paid $4.28 for regular. I never thought that I would see gas below $2.00 per gallon again in my lifetime. Yet I filled up yesterday for $1.42 per gallon. We paid $1.94 […]
There are those out there that would say I’m frugal. Maybe even thrifty. OK, most say a cheap S.O.B. Probably no one hates to open their wallet more than me. However, this time is different. When it comes to riding groomed trails to my favorite off-trail spot, I’m ready to pony up. Next season, the […]
