more, please contact Pat.
Shed organization and repair – Thank you to Curt Belau for replacing the window pane in the
shed.
Sno-Odders gear link – we are not having luck finding a place to accommodate what we want for
gear. Nicole will check into a place she thinks might work for what we are looking for and she
will let Tami know.
Safety Class – We will not be hosting a safety class this year. If anyone would like to get certified
and run a class in the future, please contact Pat or Tami for information.
Trail Report
Trail Section leaders for the 2018-2019 season are still needed.
We are still looking for a couple
more volunteers to mark trails. We need someone to mark the spur trail to the Ripon Family
Restaurant. We also need someone to mark from FF to E

A huge Thank You goes out to Fond du Lac County Youth Representative
Evan Conlon and his friend

Ryan McWayne for volunteering
to mark the Spur trail to Boarders Motel and Plaza Bowl.
Kyle will go to Boarders and Aurora
Clinic to ask for permission.
Dean Luker from the Berlin River Riders Club volunteered to mark
the trail from Industrial park to the gas station. Thanks Dean!a
It is very much appreciated!
Section Status Update – Kyle has marked from E to 44. Wes marked from PP to FF. Rich's
section is done and brushed from Goeden's shop to 26. Thanks guys! Some others are going out
on December 8 th to mark. **Remember to record all of your time and if you need help please
let Pat know and he will send out an email for help. All of our time and equipment used needs
to be recorded so that it can get entered into SNARS for reimbursement.
New Business
Roller – We were thinking of making/buying a roller to help get a nice base on the trails at the
beginning of the snow season. Kyle found a club that is selling their roller. He brought pictures
to show the club. It is for sale for $1000. The roller would help to make a base on the trails
which would help to keep them from melting when we get some of those warm sunny days. It
would basically take all of the air out of the snow making it compact. It would be reimbursable,
but at this time it was decided that we would hold off on the purchase and use our current
equipment.
Club Trip – Tentatively we will do another club trip on February 8-10 in Lakewood.
Women on Snow is January 25-27, if you are interested in going, get in touch with Tami and she
can give you the information.
Jan 18 th Ride – The Dundee and Dotyville clubs want to ride here to Ripon and then go on a ride
with us.
January Meeting will be Thursday, January 3 rd at Plaza Bowl at 7p.m.
Thank you to PC Power Center and the Conlon's for hosting the December Meeting!
Merry Christmas to all and think SNOW!!!!!
