    • I cant find my trailer keys today and im starting to think i dropped them in the parking lot beside gas station in temiscaming after pulling the tongue lock off and putting the pin back in. I have a duplicate set but its missing the man door key. If anyone happens to be parked there this week and see's them let me know please. 4-5 keys on a bright yellow lanyard thingy. Thanks.
    • They were open today, but had some staffing issues. One young lad running the whole show.  Apparently, they opened a little late, and had a group of sledders waiting at the door when he showed up.  He did a good job and got everyone fed. 
    • Yes spare parts inventory need to be increased for sure but if every club has to stock spares that gets to be huge inventory with multiples duplicates between clubs.   And what happens to those parts when OFSC gets rid of that model?  Club is stuck holding the bag?   Here is a couple pics of Trucks headed to customers site last summer. 
    • You sound like you know the costs of doing the moves and when it's been done in the past it has been for long timeline repairs only. Unless the broken down groomer is going to be down for an extended period it doesn't make any $ sense. If the OFSC is actually ever going to get down to only 2-3 different groomer purchases (which I believe was the plan a few years ago) then the OFSC stocking some hard to get often needed parts might make sense. I know our local Case/International/Soucy groomer waited about 4 weeks last year (in a short season year) for a king pin which was a known issue for the particular units.
    • I get the cost of float moves.  A groomer is an easy move compared to what my customers and I work with on a daily basis.  But float moves are possible.   in this case maybe it’s a perfect storm and just bad luck.   Huge snowfall and 3 or 4 neighbouring clubs all having breakdowns at same times.   And maybe I am a little cynical of OFSC after all the early discussions of cutting trails, cutting groomers, and then no trails locally around my cottage despite a huge volunteer effort.
