IOW r i irge fffam/eilige CRAIG N/CHOLSON VOLUNTEERING by Craig Nicholson • (©2005 by Craig Nicholson. All rights reserved.) You can enrich sledding memories by lending a hand toa snowmobile club for a few hours. It worked for me. My time as a club volunteer gave me a deeper appreciation of the 'snowy miracle that is winter. It also reminded me of the privi- lege of riding Ontario snowmobile trails, which are among the world's best. More than that my volunteering makes me feel like I'm part of something much bigger and more important than just going for a casual ride. I'm proud of our trails and proud of what our clubs have accomplished during the past 39, years - and I'm - proud that my own small contribution has helped. This takes my sledding experience to a whole new level. It feels good to belong! Like me, most snowmobilers eagerly anticipate the opening of groomed trails and can hardly wait to get started. Personal experience proved to me that a great way to really wet my appetite is to spend a few hours helping a club get ready. There's nothing like pitching in with other avid snowmobilers for a few hours of fun, camaraderie and accomplishment. I found that sharing memories of great snowmobiling moments and talking about plans for the upcoming season gave my anticipation keener edge. I even benefited from new ideas and tips about where to go and what to see. Volunteering is a plea- sure your entire family can share. It's also ideal for a husband and wife team looking for a shared interest. In addition to new friends and finding new riding compan- ions, the hours I invested in snowmobiling were also an amaz- ing eye-opener. During my first work party, I, was astounded that this rugged terrain would soon be a groomed snowmobile trail. If you've never seen what a trail looks like before the snow falls, that discovery alone is worth the investment of a few hours helping out. Besides, it was great to be outdoors, while getting some exercise. Being behind -the -scenes to help make snowmobiling suc- cessful is like being on a movie set. Sure, you can pay your money and sit in a theatre, passively watching the final cut. Or you can be part of the creative process. I'm the kind of person who likes to learn as much as.possible about my inter- ests and passions, so witnessing first hand some of the activi- ties that help achieve the final result made snowmobiling more real. Maybe trail preparation isn't your cup of tea. That's no problem, because there are web sites to be updated, newslet- ters to be produced, permits to be distributed, groomers to be maintained and social events to be organized. Someone even has to organize the other. volunteers! So whatever you enjoy doing, you can offer your services to help out, confident that you will make a difference. Frankly, I was surprised at the personal satisfaction I felt from lending a hand. As I gave myself a pat on the back, I realized that I was feeling pretty good about helping to pre- serve snowmobiling. Now my family and friends have an even better opportunity to get outdoors each winter on a snowmobile- and I've done my bit to keep the fun happen-.• ing for years to comet Your ARCTIC air Sledquarters Snowmobiles & ATV's Sales & Service Parts & Accessories Amor SHARE OUR PASSION.'"
