Congratulations to all of you! The Cody club sold the most raffle tickets again this year. We also were able to bring home 5 of the 23 Cabelas gift cards. Congrats to Ed Higbie & Mountain Valley Motorsports for winning two of the top three gift cards. Our club also received $390 from the Ski-Doo Million $ club. This is awesome for a club our size.

Fun Days will be in Alpine next year. If you have never attended Fun Days you may want to think about going next year. It really is a good time and a great way to get to know your fellow snowmobilers from around the state.

The trail markers were pulled this last weekend. Thanks to all of you who were able to help. There is a possibility that we did miss a few markers so if you are out there riding later this month and you happen to find a trail marker or two please take it back to the Safety Shelter. Since there is so much snow we will put the markers back under the trailer when we pull the shelter off of the mountain this summer.

Highway cleanup has been scheduled for June 5^th. We will meet at the game check station pullout at 9. Hope you can join us.

There will be a meeting on Friday May 20^th at 10:30 at the Community Center in regards to plowing the road between Cooke City and Pilot Creek. According to Kim Capron (the facilitator) this is supposed to be a fact finding meeting. Bert has talked to the commissioners and is hoping to have a meeting with them on May 10^th or 17^th. Kim Rapp (the trail consultant for WSSA) has written a 3 page report that will be presented to our Commissioners as well as our club members. There was a lot of discussion and concern about what may come out of this meeting. Remember, Cooke City doesn’t’ have the infrastructure to handle any additional business in the winter time. Bert will also try to meet with the Chamber Board to see where they stand on this issue as well.

Congratulations to the new club officers:

President – Rob Marshall, Vice President – Zach Hart, Secretary – Bryce Carroll, and Treasurer – Michelle Young.

Brenda Miller will remain the Wrangler reporter and the Web master for another year. Carol Higbie also said that she would continue to be the meeting reminder gal.

Rob Marshall won $26 in the 50/50 raffle. He donated his winnings back to the club and requested that all of the money be put into the scholarship account. Remember you have to be present to play.

Congratulations to the winners of the “Club Participation” drawing: Jeff Mitchell ($250 gift certificate), Brenda Miller ($150 gift certificate) & Bert Miller ($100 gift certificate).

This was our final meeting of the season. Our next meeting will be September 7^th at 6:30 in the basement of the Search and Rescue Hall. I hope you all have a wonderful summer!

CCSA Secretary
