On Saturday January 7, 1995, a meeting was held at the Lake/Osceola State
Bank to discuss the formation of a snowmobile club whose purpose would be to enhance and improve snowmobiling in Lake County.
The immediate goal was to extend the Honeymoon Trail into Baldwin and link
it with the Pere Marquette Trail east to Reed City.
The Club then took over 17 miles of the New Lake Trail from Newaygo County
Parks System, bringing the total number of miles of groomed trails to 54. The Peacock Trail connector added another 22 miles,
increasing the total of miles to 76.
At the beginning of the 1997-98 season, the Club took over the Newaygo/White
Cloud Trail. This brought the total miles of groomed trails in the two counties to over 100!
In the 1999-2000 season the Club took over the trail from Baldwin to Reed
City increasing the total of groomed trails to 136 miles in three counties.
Taking care of the trails isn't all grooming. Having joined the Adopt-A-Forest
Program, Club members participate in spring clean up to remove trash from the trails. In the fall they work to widen the trails
to better accommodate the groomer and install trail signs. They are involved in snowmobile safety, special events and fundraisers.
Currently the Club has three groomers, to cover all 144 miles of trails. Club
members who volunteer their time to bring you the best trails possible operate these groomers.
