STR Snowmobiling Season

The Sunset Trail Riders Club is gearing up for the 2010 snowmobiling season.

President Ken Bracken says they've been hard at work grooming area trails and preparing signage.

Bracken notes they've also had a little more financial help than previous years.

The STR recently received funding from from the OFSC, and the Federal Government to rebuild the Ethelma Lake bridge.

Trail permit sales are slightly down from last year, but Bracken notes that's probably due to
November and December's warmer than normal weather.

Permits are available for purchase throughout the snowmobile season.
