SNOWMOBILE TRAILS CLOSED FOR THE SEASON!
Snowmobilers are being warned to stay off of OFSC Prescribed snowmobile trails effective immediately. These trails are now either closed or in the process of closing. Area clubs have stopped regular grooming operations. Signs and stakes are being removed and gates and fences closed. Snowmobilers are advised that rapidly deteriorating snow and ice conditions now make snowmobiling extremely hazardous anywhere. Roads and road crossings are now generally bare and the ice on all waterways is melted, melting or unstable .
The public is also reminded that a closed OFSC snowmobile trail on private land means that access to that trail is also closed to any other users or persons for all other seasons, without the specific prior permission of the landowner.
On behalf of our clubs and volunteers, I want to thank all of the landowners who have generously allowed the use of their property for an OFSC snowmobile trail this winter. We also appreciate the support of the many snowmobilers who bought trail permits to help pay their share of the cost of trail operations for the 2007/08 season which lasted for more than 17 wonderful weeks.
Please use extra caution such that you & your Families can enjoy the rest of the snowmobile season!
Gilbert Fortin
President
The Timmins Snowmobile Club
would like to give a thousand thanks to
"Mikey's General Sales"
for his generous donation of two used sleds.
These "new to us" sleds are greatly appreciated by our volunteers
and will considerably enhance trail maintenance.
Again THANKS a bunch Mike!
