daggiedoo Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I've been working with a club Director since January 1st, riding the trails and reviewing the signage along the trails. My 1997 Polaris 2 UP is loaded with stakes, the pounder, a milk crate full of signs and tree clippers. I've learned a lot about the meaning of the signs and the regulations around the signage. Yellow arrow signs to be used at hazardous or 90 degree bends, black arrows on white background are directional. A couple days ago we rode the trails up past Little and Big Hawks up to #16. Pretty rough so I am hoping this snow does a good job of filling in those holes. So, if you see 2 60 year old women on the trails pounding in stakes for a new stop sign or a slow sign, give us a wave and say hello! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Quimby Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 You and Liz have done a lot of work! Signage has been a weak spot for a long time..in particular the destination signage. It's not easy work! A few of us have been out and working through the system and as great as it is to be outside..it's not as simple as many think. Thank you for helping us out!!!!

daggiedoo Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Thanks Fred. We work hard but enjoy it and it's my way of giving back to the club. I am a firm believer in keeping this club going and value all the work the volunteers do to make this happen. We're hearing too many stories of clubs shutting down.

Fred Quimby Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 You're right! And the club is important to the Winter economy of the area! Finally with this snow we can appreciate the signage work and people can enjoy the trails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Wildbill As an fyi Peter O. lost Mrs O at least a year ago. He's getting around okay but is slowing down. Still a very proud man with lots of stories to tell.
