Meota and District Recreational Association (known as Meota ADRA) held its annual snowmobile rally Sunday, Feb. 21 with a total of 153 snowmobilers taking part.
The Riders top cash prize was $780 won by Lyle St. Marie. Second was Danny Esquirol and third was Arnold Fisher
Ghost hand top cash prize was $220 won by Sean Day. Second was Lexie Lessard and third was Sean Day.
The 50/50 paid $810 to Ken Willie.
Hot dogs and coffee were offered along the trail, and at the end of the day folks gathered for 'Chili on a Bun' and the awarding of the prizes. Many went home with a smile after a good day of riding and the camaraderie that goes with it.Â
The rain the day before left a sheet of ice everywhere but the four inches of snow that followed left the groomed trail in fine shape. The weather was perfect for safe riding – not too cold.
Organizers credit the many sponsors who gave prizes and cash donations, the trail making crew who marked out a great trail, everyone who volunteered their time and those who prepared and donated all the chili and cookies with the success of the event. They also have a special thanks to all who came out to ride and who contributed to the sales of ghost hands and 50/50s.Â
"Without all of you, this day would not of been a success," say the organizers.Â
