NEWS FROM OUR LOCAL VERMILION PENGUINS SNOWMOBILE CLUB!  THEY ARE STAKING LAKE VERMILION THIS WEEK!  CONDITIONS ARE STILL NOT PRIME YET FOR RIDING THE TRAILS, ALTHOUGH LAKE RIDING MAY STILL BE SKETCHY IN SOME AREAS.  WE WILL UPDATE THIS WEEK AS WE WILL BE OUT HELPING STAKE THE LAKE.
 
NEW STAKING SCHEDULE – Help needed.
We are trying to get the stakes set before Christmas so we need to do it mid-week which makes volunteers a bit more difficult to come by so if you can help please do. It’s fun.
Schedule:
Monday: we will set the big map/directional signs out on the lake. We could use another body or two with sleds. The plan is to meet at the shop but if that is out of your way – we can meet on the lake. Please let us know in a comment if you are available.
Tuesday: we will stash stakes at convenient locations around the lake so staking will be more efficient. We could use a body or two with pickups. 9:30 at the shop.
Wednesday: this is the big day, we would like to get all the stakes set so will need bodies with sleds (meaning snowmobiles but if you have a sled sled we can use that too). Usually we have a lot of help but this being midweek near Xmas we might be a little skinny so please volunteer if you can. Any extra bodies will not be wasted we will just get done sooner. Bring a little shovel and a 3lb or so hammer if you have them. Meet at the shop at 9:30 or catch up to us one the lake.
Thanks everybody – stuff is getting real now and fast!!! Yippee!!!!
