Hello! We are the Howard’s Grove Lakeshore Driftbusters snowmobile club. The club was established in 1970. The club consists of approximately 125 family memberships. The club maintains approximately 55 miles of trail in Sheboygan County. 45 miles of county funded trail and 10 miles of club trail, stretching from Haven to Rhine Center. All work done to get the trails ready each year is 100% voluntary and work is not mandatory but greatly appreciated.
Trails are maintained by 2 groomers pulling a 9 ft 6 inch wide drag and a well trained grooming staff. We strive to have the best marked, best groomed and best maintained trails in the area. Please let us know how were doing. In 2000, the club purchased some land and built a club building to store our groomers and all of our equipment. The building is located on the corner of Hwy 42 and Cty MM.
Our 110 landowners are the most important part of our trail system. Without there generosity and allowing us to use there land. We would not be able enjoy the sport we love. Our club stress’s in each newsletter the importance of staying on the trails. Respecting the landowners and treating each piece of property you cross as if it was your own.
Over the years, the Lakeshore Driftbusters have been involved with the local community. This ranges from yearly scholarships given to high school seniors. Sponsoring youth softball teams, sponsoring a local rider in the MS ride and donating to the local fire departments.
Snowmobile clubs are not all about work. There are lots of fun things to do. Hay rides, club snowmobile trips, poker runs, our Annual Brat Fry and Dance and Landowners appreciation dinner are just a few fun activities our club plans every year.
I hope you will consider joining the Howard’s Grove Lakeshore Driftbuster’s and make some new friends, get involved and enjoy. You can call Kaitlin Rietbrock at 920-286-1523 for further assistance. Thank you.
Club renewal dues will increase to $30 on December 1st. New memberships will remain at $25. Pay your dues early. Remember, you are responsible for ordering your trail pass, not the club.
