The trails were open 31 days. Thank you to the 8 groomer drivers that volunteered their own time to keep our trails looking great!
There was 160 hours of total grooming time. Some of the fuel for the groomer was taken from the tank at Ehrhart’s farm (421 gallons) while some fuel came from the tank at Marshall Oberhart’s farm (225 gallons).
Justin Ehrhart submitted an invoice for the fuel and maintenance items needed for the groomers. Ken Werner made a motion to pay the bill. Al Oberhart seconded the motion.
GPS units will be ordered for each of the grooming tractors. The question was asked if the GPS units can be moved to other tractors as needed. Darren Slotty said that he would look into this.
