From Solomon's Words for the Wise:

Roulette, on the western end of Potter County, in North Central Pennsylvania, is the place to go for winter fun on Saturday, January 31, 2009.

The West End Trailblazers Snowmobile Club is putting on their 7th annual Winterfest that starts at 10:00 am and runs until 4:00 pm.

They will have radar runs for the snowmobiles, hay rides for the kiddies, food and refreshments. There will be games, a money pit for the kids to dig for money, a clown, raffles & ripoffs, games and door prizes. Music will be provided by DJ Bill.

The event is held each year whether there is snow or not. The last few years, there wasn't much snow.

This year there is more than a foot of it out there. The snowmobile trails are marked to nearby communities if you want to ride your sled to the Winterfest.

If you have a sled to sell or are a dealer wanting to bring a display or demos, get up early and find your way to Roulette.

The event is held across the street from my home on the Kaple Century Farm. There's many acres to ride your sleds on, and a large area is plowed out for off street parking. In fact they are out there now making it bigger as a large attendance is expected.

The members of this club maintain several trails in the area which tie into trails maintained by other clubs in other areas.

One thing we want to caution you about is that there is no gasoline available in Roulette so fill your tank before you start. For more information go to the West End Trailblazers web site or call one of the people listed there.

It is suggested that you dress warm as the weather is forecast to be windy with a chilly high of only 16 degrees. Some of the activities are in the barn, out of the wind.

Hope to see you there, we'll be taking pictures.

Hymn Sing & Pork & Sauerkraut Dinner


When you are done at the Winterfest, ride on over to the Riverside United Methodist Church, on River Street, in Roulette.

They are having a Hymn Sing starting at 4:00 pm followed by a Pork and Sauerkraut Dinner that is open to the public.

Cost is $7 for adults, and $4 for kids under 10.
