SENBSA - South Eastern New Brunswick Snowmobilers Association

Over the summer 0f 2008 your club was organized into 4 zones or Districts and each member of the Board of Directors has selected a Zone they will represent. Therefore Board members will be responsible for trail quality, signage, and grooming within each District / Zone. Our club's trail system is massive, and we have been searching for ways to make it a little more manageable and easier for members to be involved in their area and work the trails they ride the most. The District / Zone system cuts down the confusing amount of trails and hopefully our members can get out after supper a few nights to help with local signage and bridge work. This type of idea has been very successful in the past and was referred to as Adopt-A-Trail. Since the NBFSC uses the term Zone to subdivide the Province we probably should use a different term such as District to subdivide the Club's territory.
As a point of interest SENBSA is unique in the province as our club trails cover areas in two NBFSC Zones i.e. Zone 8 south of the Petitcodiac River and Zone 6 north of the Petitcodiac.

District 1 / zone 1 - Caledonia Highlands Area from Hardscrabble Road south to Alma, Hillsborough to Collier Mountain Rd including Parkindale. We are also working on regular restaurant hours for the Clubhouse, better supply of fuel in the area, and proper signage. The routing of Trail 34 is being modified to better accommodate visitors to the area and our Clubhouse. Transalta Windfarms is being very cooperative helping to relocate and sign trails around their service roads.

District 2 / zone 2 - Riverview, from Hardscrabble Road North through Nixon to the river, Trites Road to the Salisbury rail-line. Water, water everywhere and none of it frozen. We all know how big a swamp hole this area is until winter freeze-up comes. This District will have more grooming hours spent here this year as we develop a new connection to the north side of the Petitcodiac. There has already been a lot of pipework and drainage work done through the construction season to fix the problems that were so troublesome last year and there's more to come. Chairman - TBA

District 3 / zone 3 - Moncton North. From the river to the next club north, Magnetic Hill to Salisbury DOT Scale House. These trails have been hit with the double whammy of massive urban development and poor grooming conditions for a few years now. We will be relocating the trail from the river to Magnetic Hill and hope to get around the casinos and housing developments but still gaining access to the Gas and services in the Moncton area. There will be new trails north of the Homestead Road and around the Indian Mountain area. We also have to reroute or build a few water crossings. Chairmen - Danny Gillcash 852-3614

District 4 / zone 4 - Salisbury to Prosser Brook/Salisbury to Sweet Mountain. Planning to build the Danny Chapman Memorial Bridge in behind Hill Top Subdivision. A bridge at this location will link the trail coming from the Trans Canada (at the DOT Scales) to the CN rail line in Salisbury. Once signs have been received from the Federation, the main trail from Synton to Prosser Brook will be completed. We hope to have a marked and groomed trail into Sugar Bush Lodge this year.
