GMNC Sponsors

In 2006 the Jean Thomas Lambert Foundation gave GMNC an extremely generous grant that allowed us to purchase a brand new PistenBully 100Nordic with an 11 foot plow and 10 foot tiller, and double independent track setters, and an internal heater to pre-warm the engine and hydraulics. The grant also provided funds to operate the snowcat for several years. (Money that will run out in 2011.)

The following companies have generously donated products to support the GMNC race series.

After looking at last night’s and this morning’s model runs, I think the National Weather Service snow forecast is way overdone. Snow will start Saturday afternoon on the GMNC trails and get heavy in the late afternoon and [...]
