Big Shout Out to John and Denise McLean for outfitting the clubhouse with up to date fire protection! Better safe than sorry.

ATTENTION SNOWMOBILERS!! With warm weather forecasted for the next few days it is of utmost importants that we "stay off" the trails to try to save the base we have. We will commence grooming once again next weekend when temperatures drop. We thank you for your co operation.

Edit to yesterday's post. Please message us here with oicture of ticket. We can then work on the easiest way for prize pick ups thanks

$1413.00 raise yesterday on the OHSR first "Trail Toll Booth". Thank you so much to everyone who stopped and made a donation to our club and The Bancroft Food Bank. Big thanks to the volunteers and organizers who made it happen. Door prize draws to be made today and posted on this page tonight. Good luck to everyone!

Jeff and Steve out making trail repairs and packing. Working to get trails ready and safe. OHSR trails are still closed.

Read this , follow the guidelines and we can enjoy our sledding

Great video explaining early season trail prep and why trails take time to open. Thanks STV

Attention sledders. OHSR groomers will commence packing tomorrow, however........ The trails are and will remain closed until conditions say otherwise. Anyone who feels the need to disrespect closed trails and ride anyways must be well aware there will be a lot of work being done and machinery on trails and stopped in some cases not to meantion volunteers in foot. Please be the solution and not the problem.

https://www.ofsc.on.ca//ofsc-requests-cooperation-from-sn/ Please share this message and more importantly, keep your sleds parked for the time being. At this time, ALL trails on the ITG are RED - in other words, NOT AVAILABLE! https://ofsc.evtrails.com/#

Old Hastings Snow Riders trails are NOT open. Check OFSC trail guide for availability before you ride.

Another KLSC private property snowmobile trail closed permanently because entitled sledders would not stay on the marked trail. PLEASE RESPECT OUR LANDOWNER PR...OPERTIES... ALWAYS! Stay on Marked Trails, no sledding on open fields ever! or we'll all be scratching down the sides of roads and ditches doing bypasses. See more

OHSR's are in search of hardwood skids. Anyone willing to donate to our trail maintanance would be greatly appreciated. Can reply here or call Steve at 519 370 8141. Thanks

Get ‘em while they’re hot and before fees go up on November 1st..https://permits.ofsc.on.ca/ We talk a lot about where your permit dollars go and we wer...e curious about the value to you when it comes to your winter snowmobile experience. Based on your responses to our post yesterday about how many KM you ride per season, we did some quick math and the average KMs per season is 4924.74km (if you provided a range, we picked the middle number to keep it realistic). So, when it comes to the monies you spend on your permit (especially, if you take advantage of the lowest fees of the season), your investment works out to an average cost of less than 8 cents per KM riddensounds like a pretty good deal to us! Even if you only ride 200KM, it’s still less than a buck a KM. Seem to good to be true? We compared this against the International Snowmobile Manufacturers Association (ISMA) snowmobiling statistics that states ‘the average snowmobiler rides their snowmobile 1,111 miles / 1,788 km per year in North America.’ (http://www.snowmobile.org/snowmobiling-statistics-and-facts) Going off this number, the average per KM cost works out to about 11 cents. PS we included the $7.50 processing fee in these calculations too! PERMIT. TRAIL IT. LIVE IT. See more
