Our membership meetings will be held at the Church of the Good Shepherd (Episcopal Church) on Main Street in Rangeley again this year – if there ever is a change in meeting location, you will be notified.  If any of you are interested in getting a group together to prepare a dinner for one of our membership meetings, we can’t tell you how much we would appreciate that!

** Note change of date. The meeting will be held at the Rangeley Guides & Sportsman Club House in Oquossoc and the Rangeley High School Class of 2010 will be preparing the meal for us.

 
2009 Officer Elections

Elections for 2009 RLSC Officers occurred on 6/21/08. New officers


2008 Annual RLSC
Open House!

RLSC will be hosting its annual Labor Day event at the Groomer Barn on August 30, 2008 from 11-2 pm.. Kick off the new season by chatting with the Officers and Board members and enjoy a free cookout lunch.


Absolutely no riding on plowed roads in the Rangeley area!

We have already had one serious accident – a sled rounded on a corner and hit a truck on a plowed road.  The rider had parked his truck and unloaded next to a sign that read “no snowmobiling”.    This land is owned by paper companies and land management companies.  Most of our trail system is on their property and they will shut us down completely if this doesn’t stop.  Logging trucks and other vehicles have every right to be on these roads any time.  You are not only jeopardizing your life by riding on these roads, you are jeopardizing the entire Rangeley trail system.  Wardens have been asked to patrol these areas heavily.

We understand that some people have been removing the “no snowmobiling” signs so they can claim they didn’t know they weren’t supposed to ride there.  Maine state law states “no snowmobiling on plowed roads” – it is illegal whether there is a sign posted or not.



Mike and Kathy Espinola, RLSC members from Groton, Mass manned the booth for a day at the NESE.



Gail Gavigan and Vincent Banaitis served up Rangeley hospitality for the Expo patrons.

Play
"Easy Bucks"!

You can win $50 or $100!

Here's an opportunity for you to win cash each month in a lotto-type 2005-2006 season contest.

At each membership meeting, September through June, we will draw 2 entries for a $50 prize. If the winners are present at the meeting, the prize doubles to $100. When the winning entry is drawn, it will be placed back in the tumbler and will be eligible to be drawn again (we've had numerous 2-time winners and even one 3-time winner!). You could even win twice in the same day!

The cost is $10 per entry, or 3 for $25. Simply mail in the form (or click here to download the entry form) and submit it with your money. You will be issued a number(s) for your entry, the numbered ball(s) will be placed in the tumbler and will remain there for the entire season. You may purchase as many entries as you wish. We will send you a card showing which numbers were issued to you.

Remember, prizes double if you are in attendance at the time of the drawing. Business meeting dates and locations are as posted elsewhere on this page.

Congratulations to our recent winners!

RLSC 2007
Christmas Party

12/8/2007

RLSC hosted its annual Christmas Party this year a week early again to help avoid conflicts with other holiday events. The Christmas party/dinner was a huge success and the food was excellent!  Thanks to the Rangeley Inn for making our event so nice.  Also, thanks to Larry Koob for making our party so entertaining.  Larry sold 50/50 raffle tickets at the party and got the prize up to $500 which was won by Pat Allen of Rangeley.  Congratulations!!!  Thank you all for bringing gifts and food to be given to The Giving Tree.  All this merchandise will be distributed to needy people in the Rangeley area.
