Celebrating Snowmobiling Since 1969! Volume 2017-18 Number 1 www.boboen.com President s Message Tom Nampel Your Support is Needed! I hope everyone is enjoying the summer and praying for snow. As you know it takes a lot of time and money to keep the trails in perfect shape and keep the club running. Two of our biggest fundraisers are coming up in August. On August 26, we have the Pig Roast at the Sportsmen's Chalet. We need to have a lot of people to attend. If you are up here please stop by and show your support. Raffle items and donations are welcome. The second fund raiser is August 27. It s the annual Drive With The Groomer Drivers golf outing at the St. Germain Golf Club. We are looking for hole sponsors. Please try to attend both functions. Thank you for your support. Tom Nampel Club President *Please read more about our August events elsewhere in this newsletter.
