LadyDi Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 sorry my bad.... I've changed the wording to "charity"
LadyDi Posted February 6, 2014 Author Posted February 6, 2014 Anyone wanting to bid Friday night and not able to attend, pm me so we can exchange contact information Should be an excited last 10 minutes!!!!
LadyDi Posted February 6, 2014 Author Posted February 6, 2014 The sled is rideable and fully operable thanks to a club volunteer giving it a tuneup , however Viperrules700 as I'm sure you know, you would require insurance, permit and registration before riding any sled off your own private property or other private property you have permission to ride on. This sled doesn't have an ownership with it but you will receive a tax receipt for your donation.
LadyDi Posted February 6, 2014 Author Posted February 6, 2014 Btw it was St Clements Snowmobile Club executives and a few of the membership who decided to promote the sled funds for the PET Sled Ride of Hope. One of the club members donated his time to tune up the sled and have the sled working good! Big Kudos to St Clements Snowmobile Club for all their efforts and consideration to have this donated to the PET Sled Ride of Hope Fundraiser!!! SCSC really does care about the community and beyond! Oh and BID IS NOW AT $1,000!!!!!!
LadyDi Posted February 8, 2014 Author Posted February 8, 2014 Excellent story for a great cause! Thanks VP Thank you to everyone who supported this event! Also big kudos to Steve Hergott, club member who donated his time to flush the lines and tuning the sled for the auction! Thank you to all the bidders! The final bid was $1,000 and a local member of St Clements Snowmobile Club is now a proud owner of the vintage sled! Proceeds will be presented to PET next Saturday at the PET Sled Ride of Hope!
