Typically held in February, 2021 would mark the 50th consecutive year of the long standing tradition of gathering and enjoying some delicious chicken dinner in the community. Over the years we have welcomed generations of families, snowmobilers and non-snowmobilers alike, from down the street, across town, across the state and beyond. The dedication of the volunteers involved in the shopping, food prep, setup, cooking, serving and cleanup has been key to the successful the longevity of this event. Some years we've had hundred of sleds ride right to the event and other years we've all had to drive by car, but regardless of you got there the chicken was always there hot and ready.
In light of the current health crisis across the state and restrictions on gathering and travel, the club has decided the 2021 50th annual chick BBQ will be cancelled. As much as is breaks out heart to put a gap in this storied tradition, we feel this is the responsible thing to do. We no doubt plan to return in 2022. This year our major fund raising event will take the form of a raffle, with all tickets being sold online via our website. Stay tuned for more details. Here's hoping everyone has a safe and enjoyable riding season. And remember our enjoyment of the trails would not be possible without the generosity of the landowners who grant us access to land we ride on. Please ride responsibly and thanks a landowner if you see them. |
