A local snowmobiling club received a huge amount of funding from the Ministry of Transport, for both the purpose of maintaining their trails and the purchase of equipment.
It was announced on Jan. 16 that the Pontiac Snowmobile Drivers Association (PSDA) would receive $126,245 in funding this year from the province.
“There’s new snow grooming equipment that we have purchased,” said PSDA president Alain Goulet. “It’s a new farm tractor on tracks with a new drag, which is what grooms the trail.”
