Hay Days 2003

Picking up Trash for Trails: 2004

The Hay Days Grass Drags event has grown year by year and is now recognized, as the largest snowmobile event in the World.  It has been referred to in many publications as the Grand Daddy of them All.  The first race was in November of 1967. Through the years the race has been held at many different locations and is currently in the Columbus Township of Minnesota.   The Sno-Barons Hay Days Grass Drags has grown from attendance of only a few hundred, to nearly 50,000 people. To many snowmobilers and snowmobile dealers, it has been the event that officially starts the snowmobile season. And so it became the "Official Start of Winter."


 

 

The Sno Dragons pick up trash for trails at Hay Days.  The club members empty trash barrels setup all around the Hay Days grounds, and also pickup trash and cardboard left by vendors and spectators on the ground.  A special thanks to Scott Johnson who was "Trashmaster" during the 2004 Hays Days weekend.  Scott spent countless hours organizing and coordinating the trash pickup for the Sno Dragons.

Thanks to the generosity of Arctic Cat, the Sno Dragons received 6 new ATV's this year to use at Hay Days. The ATV's are hooked to utility trailers, which get loaded up with empty trash barrels and the club members empty all the full trash barrels and pickup all trash produced during the weekend event.  

The Sno Dragons would also like to thank Vicky Buck who provides all the meals during the weekend.  She prepares delicious home cooked meals three time a day for all the club member that volunteer at Hay Days.  She spends countless hours preparing all the great food which is appreciated by everyone.
 
 

 

The Sno Dragons also put a great deal of money back into the sport where financial assistance is granted to other snowmobile organizations/clubs who use this money to maintain snowmobile trails and the sport of snowmobiling.  Thanks to all Sno Dragons for there great turn out and effort this year!
