Huge Selection A NEW STANDARD IN WARMTH Club News of volunteer service to our club.  On Jan. 14 we held the First Annual Northeast Kingdom Poker Run with the Northeast Kingdom Snow Blasters and it was a success! Congrats to Dianne Downs for winning first place with a full house! We filled the Chez Pidgeon with riders and had a good turnout at our supporting businesses. Thanks to the following businesses for being stops: The Tavern, Vermont Pie and Pasta, Cow Palace, Chez Pidgeon, Poker Palace, Norton Country Store, Averill Country Store, Aprils Maple, and Walt’s Sales and Service.  Our new Sno-Cat is on its second season of service and doing an excellent job creating your trail system. I would like to remind you that in an effort to make our trails as smooth as possible, we might need to send the groomer out during the last part of the daylight hours. Please keep this in mind and be prepared to yield to the groomer any place at any time.  Our Winter Bash will be on Feb. 18 and we will be raffling off a 2017 Ski- Doo MXZ. We will also be having an after party at the Derby Cow Palace, which is sure to be a great time! More information can be found on our website and the VAST Events section on their website. For tickets, please call 802-766-5583.. Don’t forget to check out our website, Facebook and Twitter account for the latest club news and trail reports. We also have a YouTube channel now with some great videos! That can be found at www.youtube.com/user/ DriftDustersSC.  Now that we have some new people getting involved with the snowmobile club, it’s time for me to step aside and let someone new write the club news. I’ve been doing it for the past eight years and it’s been awesome being the voice for Drift Dusters. I have made so many connections and it’s been great interacting with our members.  I would like to wish everyone a safe and happy snowmobile season. See you on the trails!
