Just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone involved with our Vintage Snowmobile Organization
for their support this past weekend! 

Our 5th Annual West Yellowstone Roundup was without question, a new beginning for Vintage Snowmobiling
in the West. Special thanks to Jim, Roger, and Ray for putting together the benefit poker run which raised
about $150 for Big Brothers and Big Sisters, and also the Gallery of Champions which was an incredible 
example of  how far this production has come in just a short time. 

Also special thanks to those who drove countless miles to attend the event. We had new participants from
Missoula, Bozeman, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, and even South Dakota in the roster. 10 new faces in a
total of 30 plus participants. Thank you all!

As always, Audrey Lee and my daughter Ashley (who covered for Norma Rhea) took care of the behind the
scenes paper work and need to be applauded for their efforts as well.70 sleds, great folks, a little  riding',
and lots of laughs! What a great day! 

On Sunday Morning we sat down and "off the cuff" tabulated revenue. We anticipate presenting Big Brothers
and Big Sisters with $500, paying for the event, and keeping a small amount of remaining money to purchase
2009 Yellowstone Show promotional materials. Stuff like banners, magazine and newspaper ads, plus more.

Congratulations to all the weekend's winners including Steve and Darrell for their incredible sleds. Also Arthur
for running off with the Framed Print and Ez Up and all the other winners at the Saturday raffle!

 I truly hope you all had as great a weekend as we did! 

Please keep the Fitzgerald's and Rhea's in your prayers!    
Take care and hope to see you all in Coeur d'Alene in July !!
