We have lost a great member of our community!



A message from the employees of KLIM.

On Friday August 12th, 2011, the motor sports community suffered a tragic loss with the passing of Nathan Blaylock, KLIM’s Snowmobile Promotions, Events and Sponsorship Manager, from injuries suffered in a vehicle accident.

The entire KLIM family feels it’s important to share the news of Nate’s passing with the industry he was so passionately committed to. We feel honored to have worked with Nate, to have become his friend and to have had such a man of his caliber as a member of our family.

Everyone at KLIM would like to express our sincerest condolences to all of those who had the opportunity to work with and/or meet Nate. As you likely know, Nate was fearless in his dedication. His refusal to conceive a project as impossible, no matter how ambitious, led KLIM to some of its most-rewarding partnerships with both grassroots and global motor sports organizations.

KLIM, numerous land-use conservation, access activist and riding advocacy groups representing all sports and seasons, have all directly benefitted from Nate’s pure creativity and simple hard work.

But above all business, network and ingenuity, Nate was true family. And his contributions to making our world a better place to live and ride in are immense.

Please keep Nate, his wife Holly and their four children in your thoughts and prayers through this tragic time.

We will try our best to keep everyone up-to-date on services and ways to help as they come about.

That is too bad. I hope his wife and children are ok. We all hate to lose someone. It is that much harder when they leave a larger immediate family behind. We can only keep them in our prayers and hope they can cope. Sorry to hear of their loss.
