SLTGA operates only with the efforts and co-operation of its members.
Cost
Trail pass revenue only contributes 60 % towards the cost of grooming and maintaining the trails. The club expenses such as heat, light, maintenance, snow removal, insurance and all the other incidentals come from members and their fund raising efforts. The canteen returns nothing to the bottom line, and gas, although it seems expensive, generates very little.
Work
SLTGA grooming hours continue to be at the top of the list for all clubs in Nova Scotia. Trail work and bridge building go on throughout the year. Bush cutting and trail maintenance is done by the members and all usually at no charge to the club.
Club
Our club has many great aspects. The new warming hut has been a big success and will continue to go out. The ice drags are a huge success, and the Dan O’Neil rally is one of the provinces largest. Trail signs are among the best in the province. Our summer golf tournament and the club opener contribute greatly. All of these things make Sutherlands a great place to visit and snowmobile from, and hopefully are some of the reasons we carry on.
Join
Bottom line is the $50.00 we require for membership is a deal. This is a family membership for all in a household. We want and desire new members to grow and move ahead.

Lastly, without the efforts of our people we wouldn’t be here. Look for your name on the list on your next visit.
Thanks for all your support,
