Trail Conditions Update: The snowmobile trail has been marked on Lake Nokomis. Thank you to Mark McDonald, Matt McDonald, Roger Selmer, Bruce Hackel, Dan Hoover, Gary Waters, Darren Merkel, Greg Johnson, Ben Johnson and Dan Searing. We appreciate your time in getting this done! As of the release of this newsletter all Oneida and Lincoln County trails remain closed. Think snow everybody!! Membership Totals: We currently have 447 members in our club with 56 new members. We had a great turnout for new members at the December meeting. Heidi Crully, Dean and Bonnie Krubsack, Riley Thedens and Aftyn Guldan, Tracey and Erik Kuske, Dan Hoover, Andy Beck, Ryan Harnack, Mallorie Phalin, Scott Fist, Tim Dassow, and Zach Knutson. We’re glad you were at the meeting! Club Rides: There is one scheduled club ride at this time. It is Wednesday, February 17. We are meeting at Twin Bay and leaving promptly at 6:00 p.m. Trailside Cookout: The club will once again host a trailside cookout at the club garage located on Hwy L. This is a free event open to everyone, not just members. We will be serving burgers, brats and chili as well as hot and cold beverages from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. There will be a bonfire as well as activities including 50/50 raffles and a spinning wheel. Watch for signs on Hwy L for those arriving in vehicles and on the Bearskin Trail for snowmobilers. Hope to see you there! Club Stickers: Reflective club stickers are available for a $1.00 donation. If you would like a sticker, please pick one up at the monthly meeting or reach out to us at info@northwoodsriders.org Donation Thank Yous: Thank you letters from last month’s club donations were received and read from the Tomahawk Food Pantry, Our Sister’s House, and the Tomahawk Backpack Program. The $500 check to the Veterans Military Appreciation Ride was returned to the club. Mark learned the original contact person was no longer involved with the group and forwarded the check to the new contact person. It is nice to be able to contribute to local organizations and programs that promote snowmobiling! Club Breakfast: Bootleggers has decided not to host the Club Breakfast scheduled for February 7, 2021 due to Covid. It will be held again in 2022. The Trailside Cookout will still be held on February 6th at the club garage.
