The Club was founded in the winter of 1972-1973 by eight local families. Originally, there were about 55 km. of trails.

The club had no groomers and a harrow pulled behind a snowmobile was used to groom trails. 

In the winter of 1973 – 1974 we joined the OFSC, and have been a member ever since. The club operated on a volunteer basis, no trail passes were sold, and all the operating expenses were covered by fundraising and social events.

In 1976 we incorporated as a not for profit corporation. This was also the year we purchased our first groomer, a Raid Trac. The trail system has expanded to 185 km.

Our first clubhouse in 1976 was a renovated chicken coop situated on the Dobson farm on Sunnidale Rd. Later, we purchased our old school portable which we located on Gord Hickling’s property on Snow Valley Rd.

We constructed a new groomer shed off Horseshoe Valley Rd. in Anten Mills. This allows us to have year round storage, fueling and maintenance in a central location.

The trails are maintained by a dedicated group of volunteers responsible for such tasks as brushing, signage, inspection, maintenance & repair.

 We estimate that over 2000 hours of volunteer labor are contributed annually by our members.

Over 75 landowners graciously allow us to maintain trails through their properties.







Sno Voyageurs Permit Outlets

Your Snowmobile Trail Permit entitles you to enter and travel any open OFSC Prescribed Trail at any time during the winter.

Permits generate the revenues OFSC clubs need to maintain snowmobile trails and buy groomers. They are the only source of funding for trail operations.

By purchasing a permit, each rider contributes to the cost of providing snowmobile trails as part of the OFSC User Pay System.

To ensure that your permit money goes to the OFSC district whose trails you ride most, it is important to buy your permit from a club in that district.

Compare this all-season value to other one-time purchases!
