Adopt-a-Highway
The club has adopted a 2-mile stretch of highway that runs through our area. We schedule three cleanup events each summer, followed by a debriefing at a local refreshment facility.

Our club runs two sets of snowmobile safety classes each year. Each set consists of three indoor classes of three hours each. These classes are held in Menomonee Falls together with the Menomonee Falls Recreation Department. The class is required by State Law for operators born after January 1, 1985.  Instructors are club members certified by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, and students who complete the course meet the State requirements.
