Trails are open in Wasaga area limited - stay away if you live out of Simcoe keep your covid ass where it belongs.

 

St Onge is sold out of sleds already, it's banner year for them.

 

Mid-Ontario Snowmobile Trails says permit sales are up more than ten percent.

 

Seems some of the economy is booming

 

I should bring a sled back home (still pissed about all my trails closed)

 

Happy Sledding

Nope. When you posted it, I assumed it was from your neck of the woods and you came across it while out sledding yourself? 

Wow!

Looks like really hard hit!

Attention Mattawa Area Stakeholders: The Mattawa & Area Snowmobile Club has decided to not charge area businesses for sign board advertising this year. If your business has already paid for advertising for the 2020/2021 season, your payment will be carried over till the 2021/2022 season. The Club wants to thank our sponsors for your continued support over the years and we feel this is the least we can do to show our appreciation to each and every one of you. We look forward to working with all of you next year when hopefully our trails will be fully open and we can see the area businesses return to profitability once again.

 

 

Parry Sound Chamber of Commerce getting involved 

 

Parry Sound Area Chamber of Commerce; Letter to Health Unit requesting reasoning for extended measures | My Parry Sound Now

Seems strange to still close the trails when everything is opening up

 

 

Greater Sudbury Police handed out a few anti-love notes on Valentine’s Day to snowmobilers on various trails.

Officers stopped 58 snowmobiles on Feb. 14 to ensure safe and sober operation, issuing six warnings and six Provincial Offence Act fines as a result.

Furthermore, two people from Wallaceburg who were visiting Sudbury to go sledding during the stay-at-home order were fined under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act.
