Holiday Party
We’ll be cheering in the Holidays at our next meeting on Wednesday evening December 19th with a Christmas Party. Please come and celebrate with us!!
Steak Dinners will be served to registered members along with immediate family members. We ask that for each dinner, $5 be donated for the American Legion. If you’re not a member yet, then arrive early and sign up. Dinner tickets will be sold starting at 7pm followed by a BRIEF meeting at 7:30 and dinner immediately afterward.
We need to gather a head-count for the American Legion. If you plan on attending the Christmas Party, please respond to this email by December 10th. Include your name and number of people joining you.
The Hilton Sno-Flyers will also be collecting food items for the Hilton Food Pantry at the Christmas Party. We ask that members bring nonperishable food items to help those less fortunate.
The Spencerport American Legion is located at 691 Trimmer Road. Please come and celebrate the holidays season with us.
Think Snow,
From the Board of Directors,
Hilton Sno-Flyers
❄️❄️Attention Snowmobilers!❄️❄️
The Hilton Sno-Flyers are trying to raise funds to purchase a Track System for our Polaris Ranger Trail Maintenance Vehicle.
To donate, please visit – https://bit.ly/2DwWmus
As anyone who has helped to put in, maintain or take out trail knows, there are many Wet Spots and Delicate Areas, A Tracked Maintenance Vehicle Would Work Best.
We’d love to do this for the upcoming Trail work Season but don’t have the Cash Available.
We have an aggressive Goal of raising $5000 by Thanksgiving, just in time to kick off the 2018-2019 Snowmobile Season.

So many signs so little time, a great way to learn about the trails is to help install them. The only way trails can open on the 19th if we have snow is if they are all installed and safe to ride #weneedhelp #hiltonsnoflyers #supportyourlocalclub #volunteer #thinksnow
Amsoil? Who’s selling it lately
Trail Marking in the Hilton area...Volunteers needed!!
Rick Wilson is heading up the trail install from Braddock Bay, through the Hilton area, to the corner of Collamer Road and Old Hojack. He's looking for assistance as this is a long stretch to mark. Rick is available weekdays, evenings, and weekends - just needs a couple extra hands. No experience necessary, REALLY!! If you can swing a sledge hammer and ride along in a UTV, then you're qualified. Please give Rick a call if you can lend a hand, 750-4995. Thanks.
Additional trail marking work details will be posted in the coming days.
