Wanted for the 2014-2015 skijor season: Volunteer trail groomers.
No experience necessary. We will train all new groomers.
Job description: We groom at -10 degrees or warmer. We groom trails at Isberg, Creamer’s Field, and North Star Golf Club. You will use a combination lock to open the storage shed that contains the snowmachine (you don’t need your own snowmachine), start the snowmachine using an electric starter, hook up the groomer, and drive very slowly over mostly smooth trails. Most grooming takes between 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 hours depending on snow conditions. We try to groom twice a week, again depending on snow conditions. You may volunteer once a month, only during certain months, or as many times as you are willing to volunteer. You may groom during the day, in the evening, or whenever you are available.
You will receive the thanks and admiration of hundreds of trail users!
Contact Pat DeRuyter at patderuyter@gmail.com if you need more information or want to volunteer.
Thanks!
