Eastman ATV March 2024 Update
Hello everyone!
Well, after a long mild and crazy winter, our riding season is almost upon us and it’s time to renew your MEMBERSHIP.
Support our club, come and help out if you can.
We at Eastman ATV hope you have had a good winter and are soon ready to ride the trails. As the snow slowly dissipates, our trail system will soon be accessible. Many of you have ridden all winter as many snowmobile trails were closed due to lack of snow, so if you can’t ride your sled, why not ride your ATV?
This year, we are going to try a few different things. Our ride committee has come up with the new schedule for the season. This year we will have Ryan Blair and a few others assist with the rides. We will continue to maintain two (2) riding groups unless the group is fairly small. If you’re interested in helping out, please let us know!
We will be having our first ride April 13th, if the weather cooperates, on our Eastman Trail.
Our AGM will be held on a ride this year on May 4th. It will be hosted during a FREE HOT DOG LUNCH at the White Mouth River, so hotdogs, chips and drinks will be provided. If you’re interested in helping out on the board, please let us know as we have a few positions to fill this term.
This year, rather than doing a Ride For Mom, we have decided to try a Poker Derby, which will be held June 8 starting in Marchand where we started with the Ride for Mom. If you’re interested in helping out and volunteering for this event ,please let us know.
We will try a weekend of riding in Woodridge on July 6th & 7th. Camping is available at Woodridge Campground, they also have rentals and there is the vintage store also that has cabins. It should be a great time catching these two great routes.
Last year we got rained out for the NIGHT RIDE so we will try it again, but in August this time.
Well, that is about all I have at the moment. There hasn’t been any breaking news with the club or the ATV world except we will be having government funding coming to help with our trails and maintenance, hopefully starting this year.
Well, folks get your membership renewed and come join us on our rides! The new ride schedule will be sent upon membership renewal. Keep in mind, some may change locations and dates due to changes in weather, but as usual we will send out notices of any changes.
We look forward to seeing everyone out again this season and don’t forget our AGM May 4, 2024.
