whiskywizard Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 It sounds like a well-run, well-supported club. They certainly earned the recognition. It's too bad that the prize of grooming equipment couldn't go to a club that desperately needed it. giving grooming equipment to a top-ranked club is like giving out cameras to winners of photography competitions, or giving a cheque to the guy who wins "Town's Wealthiest Man".

Take from that some learnings and apply them to our own clubs we will all succeed. Sharing and learning from each others successes is a winning formula. Congrats to each and every member of the club! Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm Sorry Wiskywizard you Feel that way we won the drag Fair and square. you can read the rules and the requirement that OFSC and MTN agreed on at AGM 2011 when they launched the contest. we also donated our old drag to a Club that can use it and keep it on the snow ....... please read the article and you can also visit OFSC website for clarification. Congratulations to Osgoode Carleton and Thanks to MTN Snow Equipment! The Osgoode Carleton Snowmobile Trail Club, recipient of the “2011 Club of the Year” Award from the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs (OFSC), is the proud winner of a new 9-foot wide industrial drag, worth $13,500.00 manufactured by MTN Snow Equipment of Dorval, Quebec. Osgoode Carleton won the drag in last season’s OFSC/MTN “Win A Drag Contest” by recruiting the most new volunteers of any OFSC club and qualifying as per the contest rules. Such a program is possible due to Charles Stenger, president and owner of MTN Snow Equipment, who supplied a drag for the provincial contest because he saw a need to invest in the future of organized snowmobiling in Ontario. That future starts with bringing back fun to the club and its dedicated volunteers. Charles took the time to explain the many benefits of the MTN drag from high spring loaded trip blades, higher side rails to hold snow into the drag along with a high roll edge on the pan for ease of backing up. For more info about MTN drags and the many other product and services that Charles supplies to the snowmobile clubs and snow industry of North America please go to www.mtnequipment.com .

I wasn't very clear. I read the article and it's clear your club earned the win. It sounds like you guys have got your act all together. Nice, and I'm sure it took hard work to get there and stay there. I was more thinking out loud, that sometimes a club that is struggling could use some new gear. You guys donating the old drag was both thoughtful and gracious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
