I just wanted to remind everyone that the club picnic is on Thurs. June 12th. It's at Ken & Sue Hopfensperger's house located at 3510 Chestnut Streeet, Wisconsin Rapids. Meat and beverages will be provided. Just bring a dish to pass. I do believe they will have their pool ready so bring your swimsuits too! Thanks to Ken & Sue for hosting this event!
In case you haven't heard yet the club did purchase a new (used) groomer. So, if you have any fundraising ideas, please share them, we need to do all the fundraisers we can to pay for this groomer so we can have nice trails!
And speaking of fund raisers, I had an idea for one and thought I'd just throw it out there to see what everyone thinks. I think it'll have to be something we do next spring, but we could start planning it and be prepared for it. If you think we can pull it off yet this spring/summer, let me know. Since I've been working in the garden and flower shopping I was thinking we could do a perenial sale. Those of us who have perenials growing around the yard could split some of them, put them in containers and we could sell them to the public. There's a few people in the area that do this just for themselves and the Master Gardener's have a sale every year in early May. If done properly, I think it could be a profitable fundraiser. Let me know your thoughts.

May's Newsletter
Just a note to all volunteers who have put time in on the trails, your time sheets are due in for Portage Cty to Dave Kreutzer by May 20th.
May 3rd a group will be looking into a groomer purchase. We will be looking at a unit and make a decision and maybe a purchase. A loan will be needed and we will need to have fund raisers! If you want flat trails we will need your help!
Remember when taking down trails signs to inventory the black and orange signs. We need to replace them next year!! Call Tom Mask with the numbers at 715-424-0372.
Check your emails for this Newsletter, we are going to try to get that up and going. We will send the newsletter via mail and email this month. If you don't get an email call Trudi at 715-424-2660.

May 18th is our Landowner's Appreciation Dinner. You should have received your invitations by now so please RSVP and really consider attending the dinner to show your thanks to the landowners for letting us use their land! Without them we would not have any trails. We need volunteers to help in different areas for this event. We are also looking for door prizes to be donated. Last year we asked for people to bring in any unopened bottles of booze that they may have laying around for our booze basket and would like you to bring whatever you have again this year. It really saved us a lot of money with those donations and the basket was very interesting.
