Don't forget about the Poker Run at the 126 Shelter; also this weekend is the Annual Steak Dinner @ Goshen.
The groomers will be out all weekend on Trail 34 from the Clubhouse to Teehan's Corner; Alma; Salisbury; and Trail 884 (this is the new trail that connects Club 20 with Goshen).
Moncton north has be groomed from Magnetic Hill Trail 660 & 34 to Pacific Junction and also to the Salisbury rail crossing. Also be on the look out for the groomer again on Friday and Saturday evening in the Moncton North area. Be careful around the Carroll Road area -- we are working towards establishing a new route but these things take time.

Thankfully Mother Nature has given us much needed snow! The Groomers were out to Teehans Corner and Hillsborough. Grooming will continue to Riverview and beyond today and tomorrow.
MONCTON NORTH - The Groomer will be out within the next 24 - 48 hours. We have had 4 x 4's doing damage to the trails in the Pacific Junction area and we have a serious landowner issue around the Carroll Road area. PLEASE USE CAUTION IN THESE AREAS!

We have now logged an entire week with snow on the trail system. Last weekend saw a huge amount of traffic that beat the snow into submission. Groomers have been out with drags on the trails that can withstand it, and have tamped others. There is a groomer and drag on the north side and conditions will dictate what it can accomplish. We still need more snow in all areas, but have things are in good shape, considering. SENBSA in conjunction with Goshen Snowmobile club is pleased to announce the new trail 848 from Synton Road in Upper Coverdale to the Elgin Road in Petitcodiac. This was a joint effort by both clubs and volunteers. The clubhouse kitchen is back into full swing and posted hours, and it seems people like Jon’s food, as he sold out last Saturday evening. With live music scheduled for the next 6 Saturdays, let’s make that a common occurrence. There is gas available at the clubhouse, so you all can continue enjoying your fun. Sled safe and pay attention for rocks on the trail until we get more snow.
Thanks to all the volunteers and supporters in helping keep the trails open with a special Thank You to Darren Bannister and Doug McLean

TransAlta would like to advise the General Public especially Sledders that there is a large amount of ice buildup on the blades of the windmills -- for obvious reasons, please use EXTREME CAUTION around the wind farm on Caledonia Mountain!
Ian from TransAlta will be at Club 20's monthly meeting on Monday, February 6, 2012, at the Hunters Room, Riverview NB to speak to those in attendance on the importance of safety when around the wind farm area.

Finally some snow. As anyone who was out shoveling it knows, it is
very light with not much moisture....certainly not great grooming snow.
As with the first snowfall of every winter, the snow needs to be worked
over to become a trail. Three groomers will be heading out to
compact things and open up the trail system. ( Teahans - Riverview
- Hillsborough) Once some frost gets into the snow, it will start to
shape for us. Use caution when out there. There are still
lots of rocks and other items hidden underneath. Although its
February, it’s still only the first snow on the mountain, so please use
common sense and patience. Ride safe and expect lots of traffic
and groomers.
Updates can be found here, or at SENBSA Club 20 group on facebook and our hotline 855 3444 when there is new information to report.
