Meeting was a sucess. Meet with 2 people from Shell and our county councillor Jackie Fenske.Shell was interested in what we do. Never knew that a snowmobile trail was in that area. Shell bought about 10 1/4 sections in our trail area. They have my info and will get back to me soon. Many upgraders going up in that area in the next 10 yrs or so.

it sucks that it hurt the trail system, but good for me since i will probably work at one of those upgraders down the road.

If they see that big industry is on board with resposible recreation, the local municipalities / counties will hopefully adjust their attitude toward off-highway recreation as well.

EXACTLY!!!!

What a great newspaper article that would make and positive exposure for both Shell and the Snow Angels (if Shell is OK with that....hope they would be).

Right on. Great news. Now you should hit up the companies going to Lamont.
Show them that a big player will support local clubs.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!! Great work Glenn. You make me proud.

As mentioned previously. Any way to play this off of other companies and the county. Still think it would make an awesome newspaper article!!!
