November 2026 Club Update

Hello,

If you happened to miss our October meeting, we would like to say a big “Thank You” to Tammy Johnson, Jodi Olson, and Dave Houghton for stepping up and accepting nominations (no pressure) for treasurer, chair and secretary! Thanks also to the rest of the board that helps keep the PathBlazers Snowmobile Club up and running so we all can enjoy the trails this winter. There was food, fun and conversation at our annual Pizza Party and Board Election Meeting. Members check out your emails for this newsletter and an attachment with the meeting minutes to help bring you up to speed.

If you haven’t seen the posts the Hibbing South Trail has received a little rework thanks to trail coordinator Joe McKenney and his crew. After years of dealing with beavers, we were finally able to do a re-route. Also new for this year we have a slightly different route through the Kerr-Leetonia area so please pay attention to signage. Great job guys and again THANK YOU!!

Trail coordinator Joe McKenney has been out doing some trail work which will resume again after the deer rifle season. Workdays to be scheduled via emails, Facebook and on our website. This is the one of the single biggest contributions you can make to keep our trails safe and fun. There was brushing and trail work at the end of last season that helped get a start on this season’s trail maintenance. Joe will have more info at our meeting on how you can help.
