Eddys Pub

Is having a MEAT DRAW on Sunday the 24th, starting at 1:30 pm. Some of the proceeds will be donated to the club, so if you can make it, please support this event!

-----------------

Some of you are concerned about the ecologically sensitive grasslands that we have around the Lake, and wish to know who to contact about areas that may need repair.

The best way is through the reporting line which a person can do by phone or online (1 877-952-7277 toll-free (or #7277 on a cellphone)/ https://forms.gov.bc.ca/industry/report-a-natural-resource-violation/

The information is passed to the assigned triaging officer and an officer will be assigned if necessary. Thank you for being aware of how important it is to look after our natural resources!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you have a business, particular skill set or talent that you would like to make available to other members of the club?  We would love to know about it! We are trying to create a list of skills to enable us to use our own resources to help with club or members’ tasks. We would rather pay our own members for services instead of paying travel costs for someone to come from outside the 70 Mile House area. We feel this will help build stronger ties of community within the club, and add a greater sense of ownership to our wonderful region.  If you would like to be included in this directory, please reply to  grlksnowmobileclubinfo@gmail.com  with the following information:

Type of Goods or Services:

For example, we are looking for someone with a backhoe to help smooth out some of the trail leaving from the club house cattle gates.

A special thank you to Gerry Goosen, who so generously donated his time, effort, materials, and skill to re-install our Clubhouse information sign. As you may know, the tree that the sign was hanging on finally became unstable. It was decided to put it on posts, so there should be no issues in the future.

THANKS GERRY!

Snowmobile Safety:

  • We often get calls from people who become stuck or lost out on the trails and beyond. Keep in mind that you need to go prepared, in case it happens to you. The snowmobile club will try to assist if possible, but please note that this is not a given. It will depend upon what, where, when, and who is available to go out. We are not trained or equipped for rescue operations. Sometimes your best bet may be to call Cariboo Search and Rescue 250-395-3210 or police. Here is a minimal checklist of how you can prepare:
  • Never ride alone!
  • Leave a route plan with someone at home, and stick to it.
  • Have a collapsible snow shovel with you in case you need to dig your sled out.
  • Take your fully charged cell phone with you, and extra power for it if you can.
  • Take snacks and water
  • Take a flashlight (Not your phone).
  • Have the ability to make a fire.
  • Have an emergency heat blanket in case you are stuck overnight.
  • Remember your GPS if you have one.
  • Put the Search and Rescue and other emergency phone numbers into your phone.

Green Lake-Nolan Lake Forest Service Road closure

 

 

 

For Immediate Release
2016FLNR0291-002599
Dec. 5, 2016

100 MILE HOUSE ??Recreation users and residents are advised that the Green Lake-Nolan Lake Forest Service Road in the 100 Mile House Forest District has been closed indefinitely due to safety concerns.
 
BC Timber Sales closed a small section of the road on Dec. 1, 2016, due to a decaying wooden culvert near the 5.5-kilometre mark. This section of road is not passable by motor vehicles or recreational vehicles, including snowmobiles, all-terrain vehicles and other off-road vehicles until further notice.
 
The closure will not affect access to any homes or communities. The repair work is scheduled to take place during the summer or fall of 2017. BC Timber Sales thanks the members of the public for their patience during this time.
 
For more information about this temporary road closure please contact Krista Blades, Engineering Technician at 250 395-7845 or via email at: Krista.Blades@gov.bc.ca
