Thank you to everyone who participated in the Club's Fundraiser at the Elk's Club on November 23rd. It was a great success with over $3,500 raised. Thank you to everyone who participated by joining the party, those who donated prizes and/or gift certificates, members who helped solicit and collect donations, party organizers and Rachael and Trish who helped run the door all night. With everyone's help it sure did make the evening great fun and highly successful! Thanks also to the Elks Club for loaning us their space to have our party.

Quick Fact
In a Wisconsin study it showed that deer moved away from the trail more frequently for cross-county skiers than for snowmbiles. Other studies have shown that snowmobiles and the trail systems developed have no negative impacts on wildlife in the area.
