Welcome to the F.A.S.T. Web Site! We are a southwestern Oswego County New York Snowmobile club dedicated to the sport of snowmobiling. Our mission is to promote the safe and lawful practice of our sport and to influence others to act responsibly. It doesn't matter if you live nearby, or trailer in from points distant, if you enjoy the trail system in Oswego County, it's your duty to support a local club. Besides being responsible, our group also has fun! Summer picnics, fall swap meets, and an end of season party complete with bands are just some of the year-round activities for club members. We hope you will spend some time on our web site, and decide to join us.
Trail Report
RESPECT ALL LANDOWNERS AND HOMEOWNERS! WITHOUT THEM, WE HAVE NO TRAIL!
March 7, 2019
FAST's trail from Rathburn Rd to Pinnacle Hill Rd. was groomed last night. Finally, LOTS OF SNOW! A word of caution: some of the local riders are starting to blast off the trail in various places. They may be aware of any hazards involved in this, but if you're not familiar with our trail, don't get caught following tracks off the trail. There may be no expectation of safety.
As previously reported, we use Pinnacle Hill Rd, Co Rt 46 and Bankrupt Rd to cross the river and Rte 481. We lost a couple of landowners (unhappy with sledders...). Now, we may have a line on moving the trail off of Pinnacle Hill Rd this summer. And yet, a property owner on Bankrupt Road has had issues with snowmobilers cutting into his yard and across his driveway. He has made it very clear that sledders are not welcome there. We don't have permission from landowners along these areas to use their yards as the trail - stay to the edge of the road and out of their yards. If we get banned from these areas we are out of options and that's it for us!
As always, only trail volunteers have earned the right to complain! BUT, if you have a concern worth consideration, you can email me at mikeschmid52@yahoo.com. I will get back to you. I don't/won't do social media, so don't bother getting all viral there. Trail Coordinator Mike Schmid (em. ph. #- 315-440-5897)
We hope to see you at a meeting or event soon.
Next Regular Club Meeting : Tuesday, March 12, 2019, 7:00pm RFH's Hide-A-Way. (Rescheduled from February) Election of Officers for 2019 - 2020.
