Don't hate the player, hate the game:ROFLMAO: That's some commitment. Do you have winter games also? A co-worker's grandchild plays baseball for Middleton. It's the same deal. He's in a different city every weekend cheering him on. I have no idea how the kid can focus on anything else.

This!!! This is one of the top reasons. Our sports culture is toxic in the US. Everything from the professionals, college, and kids sports. I had this conversation with my Pastor. Another reason of low church attendance and volunteering there also we feel. Exactly! I played sports and I want my...

I'm trying! It does bring me a lot of joy in helping.👍 I just lost my father a month ago, who helped a lot. Trying to make up for his contributions also. 💪 Tough deal. Montello Yetis, Marquette County. Crazy that we have that many miles. Exactly! That should be at least 3 clubs! We already lost...

The next 5-10 years will be very interesting. The current snowmobiler age is 60! Our club is barely surviving right now. We maintain around 60 miles of trail in central WI. 60! There are 5 of us club members that do everything. I'm 40, and the other guys are in their 60s. 2 of the guys maintain...

AWSC does not make the county opening procedures. That's decided at a county level. Every county can have a different opening/zone procedure. They just recommend your county has a procedure in writing. They do have the statewide antlerless starting today until Sunday, 14th.

Trails outside of Dane this morning looked groomed and smooth!

We haven't even marked Mike and Cathy's trail yet..... Agreed. You may know, but take Montello Lake(City Park and ends on Cty B) to bypass the road route around that lake.

I'm just to the south of you. Marquette county will not be opening until 1/2, due to the Holiday Hunt. I believe Columbia county will be the same. It's a shame. We fought that for years. They first introduced that hunt in 2015, and happened to be the end of the good snowy Decembers. No one cared...

Sam Landes, does a wonderful explanation of the trail pass. This is a couple years old now! That took care of a lot of financial issues, and a way to fund new projects and trails. The low snow years really hurt, and with cost of everything going up, was the time for dues and passes increases...

Welcome! We all do try to do our part, big or small. Remember these are OUR funds. We fully finance ourselves(except for some small intake from Indian gaming, gas tax)! See attached from the AWSC Oct. magazine. Dave does a good explanation of the allocations of the trail fund money. The trail...

Let me jump in and clear some items up. I've been an AWSC director for Marquette county the last 7 years. The first time directors heard of the rate increase was at the Fall Workshop meeting 2024. It was asked to get member feedback at that time. My role as a director, is to communicate any of...

Good to hear! Hope the weather wasn't as bad as they first forecasted on Friday. Last year some rain came through around 4, and cleared a lot of people out. It then rained overnight and had to cancel the grass drags on Sunday. Polaris was there last year, the only mfg. Last year's show seemed to...

I'm not going to make it this year. I ended up going to Hay Days. I got all my kid's gear there(plus more!). Enjoy!

We'll be there! Nothing too major. Grabbing some new gear for my 6 year old. We're staying in Racer's edge. First time camping. It will be dad's first time there. He's pumped! I didn't know which campground to use, so I tried Racer's Edge.

Marquette got hammered!
