March News Letter Port Byron Snow Panthers Monthly News Letter Vol. 6, March 2010 As the Snowmobile season comes to a close, most of us can look back on a decent riding season. The snow conditions have not really ever been perfect this year, but we ride every chance we can. Considering the poor conditions, our grooming program never really had the chance to take full effect, but all of our groomers have been out and Fred Sponable and Brian Nowak have groomed for dozens of hours to keep the trails as nice a possible. Many other members have also groomed in the northern section of our trail system too. This effort is the result of club members working together. The guys that attended the groomer class that I offered and then attended the practical section with Dave Hickey are now putting what they learned into action. I am very pleased to see this happen. Thanks to all that have groomed this year. Also in March we will be having the Snow Panthers Meat Raffle. It will be held on Saturday March 20th at 7PM at the Port Byron American Legion. This is one of my favorite events each year and attendance is always great. At this event we hold a drawing about every ten minutes all night for prizes including meat packages from Ed and Jeans and 50/50 tickets. We will also have hats and Snow Panthers apparel for sale. It is fun for everyone and, a great way to conclude the riding season. We also have the landowner chicken BBQ that is on April 18th and details will follow in next month’s newsletter. Club News: * Club meetings are at a new time (7:00pm)! Our next club meeting will be Wednesday, March 10th at the Port Byron Legion at 7:00pm * Thanks to all the members that have been grooming and working to keep our trails as best as possible.

| Groomer Classes Thanks to all that attended the groomer classes and have put the time in to help maintain the trails this year.
