Trail News: Trails conditions have been
all over the spectrum. Please give right of way to all groomers on trails.
They will pull over and let you by as soon as the trail widens. Weather News: We had a short warm spell in late Feb/early March
which decreased the trail base a bit. March is never predictable for
snowfall, so don’t give up yet! J. Safety Reminder: Snow melt due to warmer
temps means a softer base and the possibility of sinking on trails that were
solid just a few days ago. Streams flowing and deep water holes are the rule.
Off trail excursions will get you in trouble fast – please stay on the trails. Groomer News: Dale Nunhaver, Bill Jones, and their crews deserve yet another THANK YOU for their countless hours of volunteer time in keeping our trails in great shape. If you can help out in any way, contact Dale Nunhaver at 339-2955 or Bill Jones. Calendar of Events: MARCH 15TH - Cut-off for early-bird
registration for the NYSSA Forum (see below). MARCH 16th Chicken BBQ at Yaworski’s, 12 PM until chicken is sold out. Contact

another tremendous job organizing and running the MM Lottery. Good luck! UPCOMING ELECTIONS – Ron Crill is chairing the
