Be sure to share it with anyone you think would be interested in joining the

rain or shine, and the many activities of Winding Trails are available to all.
There is Hiking, Biking, Horseshoes, Softball, Volleyball and just an
all-around great time. Appetizers, Lobster (for those who order them),
Burgers, Dogs, Corn on the cob, Clams, Sodas/water and Deserts for all who
attend. BYOB and lobster eating utensils. Prices are down from last year!
Lobster meals are $29 and non-lobster are $18. This is a GREAT time for

Personal
note from your webmaster Pat Moore: At the 2008 NASTAR National Championships
in Steamboat history was
made. For the first time a racer became National Champion in more than one
category. I won the Men's 60-64 Snowboard title and followed it up with
the Men's 60-64 Gold Division Skiing title.
Ski
Racing Magazine made note of the achievement.
While out there I maintained an
online
diary. Plan on joining me at the Nationals
next year!
Your website has been in existence since 1999. I found a site that
archives old webpages and was able to find how
our
site looked in 2003. Update: I was able to find an
archive of our site from 1997 when Todd Sun maintained it.
Check it out!
