42 Snowmobile VERMONT Magazine Club News The Buckaroos of 302 redecked this bridge over Sucker Brook in New Discovery State Park. comments or concerns please let us know. We are always looking for ways in which we can improve our trail system and our club. Heres hoping this season will be a great one As always be safe respect the landowners property and please dont litter our beautiful trails. Kevin McDonnell Vice President Taylor Lamberton Secretary www.buckaroosof302.com Like us on Facebook Caledonia County Snowmobile Trail Club Here we are about to start another snowmobile season as we take in the fabulous vista of October foliage mixed with a gentle coating of snow. It is absolutely spectacular this year. Equally spectacular was last snowmobile season. We had snow cover for 15 of our 16 weeks of the clubs grooming contract with VAST. The unusual cold last year allowed snow that fell in late December to stay with us through April. It also contributed to some minor added maintenance to our PistenBully groomer and Mogul Master drag but certainly better than the brown snow of a few years ago. The directors are proud to announce that last year we groomed within our contract cap with VAST. The upside to this is that no additional expenses were incurred by the club as VAST had no contingency money available for reimbursing clubs that exceeded their cap. This year looks to follow the same weather cycle as the last two seasons. Our trails will open on December 16 providing we have sufficient snow cover. A strong upcoming El Nino looks to soften the temps while providing the moisture we need for great snow. The parking area at junction CA47 on Pierce Mill Rd. directly off Rt. 5 in St Johnsbury will have a comfort station once again this year. It is a courtesy item the club does to provide travelers with an option to start or continue their journey without having to find a business miles away. We have two other parking areas in our trail system for those that need to trailer their machines to access the corridor trails. Center Tower Irving in St. Johnsbury Center Vt. has gas food and repairs available and connects with trail 5F4. PettyCo Junction in East St. Johnsbury at the junction of Vermont state highways 2 and 18 has food and fuel available and connects to corridor 18. On Dec. 5 the Trail Club will sponsor a snowmobile safety course to be held at the Waterford Ridge Runners Clubhouse on Duck Pond Road in Waterford. The course is 8 hours and lunch will be provided. Register by calling 802-748-3833 or emailing the club at snowmobilecaledoniavt yahoo.com. Registration is limited to 40 people and must be done in advance to have the materials ready for the course. The deadline is Nov. 30. Our website changed in 2013 to www.snowmobilecaledoniavt.com. We are in the process of updating our online TMA purchase function to reflect the changes for 2016. You can always contact us through the website or email or our Facebook page and we will get your questions answered and your order processed. We are also changing our club logo and introducing new merchandise for 2016. You will be pleased with the updates pricing and availability that will be on the website soon. Our current inventory of merchandise that contains the old logo will be going on sale at greatly reduced prices. Sales are on a first come basis and limited to what we have on hand. Trail work has been scheduled and by the time you read this we will be anxiously awaiting the arrival of snow. Caledonia County Snowmobile Trail Club grooms and maintains 63 miles of corridor trail in what we like to call the gateway to the Kingdom. Our excellent location allows multiple day trips to a number of bucket list destinations. Conveniently located at the confluence of Interstates 91 and 93 we can offer in-town services within backcountry vistas only minutes away.
