President's Message<br />

Well, it seems that autumn summer<br />

has departed and the days and nights<br />

are becoming cooler. Hopefully the<br />

wind will die down as well and not<br />

negate our brushing efforts several<br />

weekends ago. George Langley tells us<br />

that Musky and Walleye fishing will be<br />

at its peak but what we really care<br />

about is snow, snow and snow. We are<br />

due for a great year and hopefully this<br />

is going to be the one.<br />

On Tuesday, October 11, 2011 fortysix<br />

club members attended our general<br />

monthly club meeting at Fibber’s<br />

Restaurant. A fantastic meal was provided<br />

by Rob & Kaye Manthei and<br />

their staff. Kaye Schultz thanks everyone<br />

for getting their reservations in<br />

early. This makes her job a lot easier.<br />

Our Trail Brushing took place on<br />

Saturday, October 15, 2011. Twentyfive<br />

members showed up at 9 am<br />

dined on a spread of coffee & donuts<br />

and set-off unto the trails. The brushing<br />

work was completed by noon without<br />

any serious work or injuries. A<br />

follow up pizza dinner was held at<br />

6:30 pm at the Twilight Bar & Grill for<br />

all the workers. Free drinks were<br />

served from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. Thank<br />

you <strong>St</strong>eve, Shelia and Tara for your<br />

great support of our club and the excellent<br />

repast.<br />

Trail <strong>Bo</strong>ss, Jim Wendt, reported that<br />

we are up and ready to let the snow<br />

fly. The construction of the bridge<br />

over the Rainbow Flowage is underway<br />

and will be completed before December<br />

1, 2011.<br />

Roger Klein of the Apple Dumpling<br />

Gang reports they have a dinner<br />

meeting for those interested on Saturday,<br />

November 5, 2011 at the Clearview<br />

Supper <strong>Club</strong>. Anyone interested<br />

should contact Roger Klein.<br />

Anyone interested in serving with<br />

the Trail Assistance should contact<br />

Gary Schultz or Jim Rybarczyk. You<br />

get a neat hat and vest and represent<br />

the <strong>Club</strong> at all of our <strong>Club</strong> functions<br />

and events as well as riding the trails<br />

to provide assistance to those riders<br />

lost or broken down.<br />

Trail <strong>Bo</strong>ss Report<br />

Things really seem to be coming together. Work on our new<br />

bridge across the Rainbow Flowage is progressing on schedule.<br />

All this points to an on-schedule completion around mid<br />

November. Our club brushing day was another great success.<br />

We had 25 members show up to work on our trails.<br />

These folks worked hard and were rewarded with a great meal<br />

at Twilight Bar & Grill. Our sincere THANKS to <strong>St</strong>eve Pulec for<br />

the pizza. <strong>St</strong>eve, once again, showed his highest commitment<br />

to our club with his support and encouragement. THANKS<br />

STEVE!!!!<br />

We have figured out the re-route of our corridor 15 north trail<br />

around the Maplewood subdivision. Two private landowners<br />

closed this trail due to irresponsible snowmobilers. I only wish<br />

I would have had the opportunity to police the situation and<br />

work with our trail assistance folks to keep an eye on that<br />

area. I don't believe it was our <strong>Bo</strong>-<strong>Bo</strong>en members. Please do<br />

what you can to help police our trail system - we can't afford to<br />

lose trails because of irresponsible acts on private property.<br />

Everything else seems to be coming together as we get<br />

closer to trial opening. Get that iron ready—it won't be long<br />

now!<br />

Happy Trails—Jim<br />

Trail <strong>Bo</strong>ss, Jim Wendt gives members last minute instructions<br />

prior to Trail Brushing, Saturday, October 15th.<br />

EAT. SLEEP. RIDE.<br />

Notes from the Secretary<br />

As I write this column, snowflakes have been<br />

spotted around the area so I know snowmobiling<br />

season is right around the corner.<br />

Ski-doo has changed the way they want us to<br />

sign up for the Ski-doo Million $ <strong>Club</strong> Support Program.<br />

Please go online to http://en-us.ski-doo.com/<br />

clubsupport2011/Home.aspx to complete the certificate.<br />

They will then mail back to you a certificate to take to our<br />

local Ski-doo dealers. Our club has the opportunity to generate<br />

an additional $1,500! If you do not have internet and<br />

would like to help the club with this fundraising opportunity,<br />

please call me and I will enter your information for you.<br />

Hurry… program ends November 15th!<br />

See you at an event soon…<br />

Weber’s Bar Donation<br />

Our club received another much appreciated $200 donation<br />

from Karen <strong>St</strong>ecker of Weber's Bar & Animal Park to help continue<br />

our efforts of keeping our trails groomed. Thank you very much<br />

Karen.<br />

Ongoing Appreciation<br />

As our snowmobile season's come and go, our club receives memberships<br />

and donations from singles and families that do not snowmobile<br />

anymore. These are mostly past snowmobilers and/or local<br />

business owners that enjoyed the sport and realize the important<br />

role that it still has on our town’s businesses and economy. So at this<br />

time, on behalf of the board and all members a SPECIAL REC-<br />

OGNITION & THANK YOU for your continued support of our<br />

club.<br />

The Apple Dumplings are a group of men, mostly retired, but a few are still working, that snowmobile together every Wednesday<br />

am sharp. All you have to do is show up. Coffee and socializing is usually available starting at 8:15 am in the groomer barn. There is<br />

a contribution for each ride to pay for that day’s refreshments and lunch. The group has a 3-day “overnighter” in January, a Kick-off<br />

Dinner in November, a Potato Pancake Breakfast in February, and a Brunch at the end of the season. Please feel free to call Roger if<br />

you have any questions about the group.

New Member Application<br />

2011-12


ATTENTION<br />

NON-RESIDENT<br />

SNOWMOBILERS<br />

<strong>Snowmobile</strong>s bearing Wisconsin registration are not required<br />

to have a non-resident trail pass, even if the owner<br />

is from out of state.<br />

A two year Wisconsin registration is $30.00, compared to<br />

two trail passes at $70.00 for two years. Almost two times<br />

the money is generated with a two year registration as is<br />

with two trail passes due to the formula used to transfer<br />

gas tax revenue to the state snowmobile fund; the state<br />

snowmobile fund is where the money comes from for<br />

grooming and trail maintenance. By having Wisconsin registration<br />

instead of a trail pass, you save $40.00 every two<br />

years and contribute more money to the state fund.<br />

It is perfectly legal to have Wisconsin registration on your<br />

snowmobile in addition to your home state's registration.<br />

You do not need a Wisconsin address; your home address<br />

can be used for a Wisconsin registration. Once you have a<br />

Wisconsin registration, it can be renewed online at the DNR<br />

website. Wisconsin registration applications can be obtained<br />

at any DNR office, at any dealer who sells snowmobiles<br />

in Wisconsin, and at many dealers out of state near<br />

Highway J Memorial <strong>Snowmobile</strong> Bridge<br />

Construction has begun on the Highway J Memorial <strong>Snowmobile</strong> Bridge. The site has been cleared and<br />

the pilings are beginning to be put in. We have been told the bridge will be ready to go when the snowmobile<br />

season kicks off. Our thanks to Bev Dittmar who is a long standing <strong>Bo</strong>-<strong>Bo</strong>en <strong>Club</strong> member and <strong>Bo</strong>ard<br />

Member who also sits on the Governor’s Council helped to facilitate this much needed bridge which will<br />

now keep us connected without having to use private property to get over the Rainbow Flowage. We would<br />

also like to thank the <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Germain</strong> Chamber who donated $3,000 to the bridge project which was our<br />

share of the construction costs. Those monies were raised thru the Room Tax here in <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Germain</strong>.
