Handi Transit Poker Derby (Sat, Feb 11)

darrin — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 14:54:31 +0000

The Sunset Trail Riders have again teamed up with Kenora Handi Transit to raise some funds for this terrific organization and we hope you will support them as well! On Saturday, February 11th we will be leaving from the A&W restaurant in Kenora with the registration from 9 to 11 a.m.. Then we head down the new Cross Town Corridor and head down the “A” Trail to the Witch Bay warm up shelter. Representatives from Handi Transit will be at the shelter serving Hot Dogs and hot chocolate for donations so please make sure you plan on having lunch there. Then, with any donation to Handi Transit, you will be handed a coupon for a wildcard which will help you out with your poker hand.

Once you leave the Witch Bay shelter you have your choice of several routes back home. You and your group can take the short way back via the Dogtooth Trail or head down to Sioux Narrows and stop in at Gills Trading Post or even to Stewart Lake for coffee and a snack and then back on the Pipeline trail. The derby will then return to A&W between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. where the hands will be sorted and the winners announced.

A Trail West Potential Blockage

darrin — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 16:39:38 +0000

Dear Membership:

Message to all Sunset Trail Rider Snowmobile Club Members and Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs Seasonal Pass Holders.

The OFSC and the STR have been put on notice by Shoal Lake Band # 39 of a potential blockade on the “A” trail near Shoal Lake, Ontario, Canada.

In the event that there is a blockade of the trail we ask our ridership to simply turn back and to not politicize the blockade and draw attention to the actions of the band. Unfortunately our ridership is sometime subject to outside forces which we cannot control.

If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact the OFSC at mfarr@ofsc.on.ca, our local MPP Sarah Campbell at scampbell-qp@ndp.on.ca or our local MP Greg Rickford at greg.rickford@parl.gc.ca or the local club at communication@sunsettrailriders.ca
