Recognizing our Volunteers

The club is very happy to announce its winners of awards for the 2023/24 season that call out the amazing contributions of our volunteers.

Family of the Year: Harris
The Harris's have been long time volunteers for the club and do so much to help out. They are constantly out brushing trails and working with landowners to smooth the way for the club. They are also regulars at club events, helping to serve food and clean up afterwards. Two of the family are also Groomer Operators for the club.

Volunteer of the Year: Darrin S.
Darrin is a long-time snowmobiler and volunteer. Many know Darrin as the person that stakes Chandos Lake and he has done so much more. Darrin is now our Volunteer Coordinator, working with those that offer to help out on trail brushing. Darrin has also taken a keen interest in signage and is taking on some of the responsibility for ensuring proper signage around our system. Darrin is now a Groomer Operator as well, taking regular shifts and helping out when groomers need repairs.

Outstanding Woman in Snowmobiling: Jill D.
Jill has been helping the club for a number of years, participating in events like the cookout and in the marketing and selling of the club's rejuvenated clothing line. Jill has also worked the booth at Peterborough Sledarama and she is also part of the small-but-mighty team that ensures that our map boards are looking their best and that they are as full of paid advertising as they can be.

Outstanding Communications Award: Rob D.
For many years, Rob has been responsible for the club's newsletters (reaching almost 2000 people) and the club's web site. Rob initiated the club's presence on Facebook, now a regular staple of communication from the club to riders everywhere. Rob does so much for the club in other areas as well and many of our volunteers have worked with Rob over the years.

Congratulations to all of our winners. Their names have been submitted to the District as nominees for the district-level awards, to be determined soon. ... See MoreSee Less

Annual Club Meeting Update

The club held its annual meeting via Zoom earlier this week and did a review of last year's activities and financials and talked about trail projects for this coming year. Attendance was not as we had hoped with only the existing Committee members attending. We are working very hard on behalf of our club members and were hoping to entice a few people into showing up to see what we are up to.

We'd really appreciate hearing from you thoughts you might have about how we can get people a bit more involved. We welcome all suggestions and ideas you have. ... See MoreSee Less
