Review of 2018

 

Looking Back On 2018, We Had Some Club Firsts: 

 

-First Annual Women’s Demo & Ride, with on-trail scavenger hunt and bbq, held in Remer during their Harvest Festival. 

 

-First summer riding the Sheriff Department’s RZRs, helping monitor local trails, and assisting at Moondance Country and Moondance Jam.

 

-First call from Sheriff Burch for our Search & Rescue ATV Team to assist in a search for a missing person in Cass County.  

 

-First trail work day, with our club members volunteering to help the Over The Hills Gang ATV Club build a puncheon bridge on the Emily-Outing trail.

 

-First full line of Woodtick Wheeler gear for women, introduced at the spring meeting.

 

WE ALSO:

-Welcomed many new members and Business Sponsors.

 

-Had 9 club rides — including the ATVAM 35th Anniversary Ride in Isle and Fall Ride & Rally in Willow River — and two big meetings, including a pancake breakfast in spring. 

 

-Kept members informed on ATV news and issues from across Minnesota.

 

-Certified 20 youth riders at our ATV Safety Class in Walker.

 

-Our DNR volunteer Trail Ambassadors rode over  290 hours, for a total of 1048 miles, monitoring State ATV trails. Our DNR grant to reimburse TA expenses was just over $5,000. Join our team! The DNR has TA courses coming up; get info at DNR website.

 

-Recognized Pam and Dave Shaw as Members of the Year.

 

-Started a project to promote ATV safety within schools county-wide.

 

-Cleaned our stretch of State 200 under the Adopt-A-Highway program.

 

-Visited with many families at National Night Out; and volunteered at the DNR ATV booth at the Minnesota State Fair.

 

-Promoted and thanked our Business Members year-round, and bought many $25 gift cards from them, for use as prizes and thank-you’s to members.

 

-Sold lots of cool club gear to members, and friends of the club near and far!

 

...and more!
