President’s Message

Summer is just about over, and we just held our Bo-Boen 10th Annual Golf Outing at the St. Germain Golf Club this past weekend. It was another successful fundraiser and fun event for golfers. Thank you to Janelle Ewen and Josh Renkes for organizing this event, and all of the other volunteers who helped make it a success.

The trail map for the upcoming season, with some minor trail re-routes and our sponsors’ ads updated, is at the printer. As soon as the printing is completed, they will be available in our map donation boxes at our sponsoring businesses. Thank you to Peggy Ausloos for coordinating this project.

Just as a reminder, you need to renew your club membership before you can apply for your discounted trail passes through the AWSC. There is more information about our renewal process later in this newsletter.

ATVs and UTVs can now use hard-surfaced town roads in St. Germain all year long. Some of these roads are designated snowmobile routes and will be shared by snowmobiles and ATV/UTVs together this upcoming snowmobiling season. The speed limit on Town roads is 25 mph or less so we don’t anticipate any problems. Signage is currently being installed to mark the snowmobile trails (non-road routes) as closed to ATVs/UTVs. Let’s all work together to make this a safe and cooperative sharing of Town roads.

Speaking of signage, our Trail Boss, Fred Suchy, has appointed John Lindberg as the Club’s new Signmaster. Our previous Signmaster, Jeff Horvath, and his wife Jackie are relocating to be closer to family. Thank you, Jeff and Jackie, for your years of volunteerism to the Bo-Boen Club and we look forward to seeing you on the trails this winter.

I enjoyed seeing many of you at our golf outing this past weekend and look forward to seeing you at our season kick-off membership meeting in September at Clearview Supper Club.



Roger Klein, President

Rest in Peace, Kay

Our Club unexpectedly lost our long-time Secretary, Kay Schultz, earlier this year. President Roger Klein and Past-President Ozzie Ausloos presented Gary Schultz, Kay’s husband, with a plaque acknowledging Kay’s ten years of service to the Club at a memorial held in her honor last month. 

Membership Corner

I hope you are having a great summer and are able to get out and enjoy our beautiful Northwoods lakes and forests before our winter snowmobile season.

Membership renewal forms will be mailed out to you after Labor Day. Please review your information and make any needed corrections, especially any email updates. Newsletters and most communications are done via email. As usual, you can renew anytime with our secure membership form at www.boboen.com. We do not sell or share your personal information.

This a reminder that all AWSC memberships expired on June 30. You will not be able to order the discounted trail pass until your club membership is renewed, and we then renew your AWSC membership. With our renewal campaign occurring in September, there will be plenty of time for you to get your trail passes before the trails open, usually mid-December. Memberships costs remain either family $35 or single $30.

Let’s see a great turnout at our kick-off dinner/meeting on Thursday evening, September 14th at Clearview Supper Club. It would be great to see our out-of-town members have a long fall weekend and attend a nice social evening with other members.

Ed Siergiej, Membership Chair
