The upcoming Miami Power Toboggan Vintage Sled Races, hosted by the Miami Power Tobogganing Club, are scheduled for Feb. 24 at 12 noon at the Miami Fairgrounds.
The Miami Power Tobogganing Club promotes trails and looks after their snowmobile shack in the Pembina Valley Escarpment.
The Vintage Sled Races are a family fun event with free admission for everybody. Food and drinks will be made available.
The cost to enter is $10 per class entry fee, with a 100 per cent payout of the entry fees going towards the racers. Trophies will be awarded.
“We are expecting upwards of sixty snow machines aged 1985 and older,” said organizer John Friesen. “Last year’s event was an amazing success, and this year seems to be gearing up to surpass it.”
Friesen notes that competitors are lined up to be coming from all over Manitoba, Ontario, Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota and Saskatchewan.
Registration ends Feb. 24 at 11:00 a.m., so get your entries in as soon as possible.
“This is one of our biggest events we put on during the year,” said Friesen. “This is a nonprofit event from a nonprofit organization passionate about snowmobiling. We also host a truck and tractor pull with the famous mud bog on June. 1 that we are looking forward to down the road.”
