As for everyone commenting on the "free" classes being offered. Those classes are sponsored by a manufacturer or dealership. This class is being hosted by a few guys who wanted to have a class locally. Our local Ski Doo Dealer was nice enough to allow us the use of the showroom for the evening. None of us are getting paid for hosting it or doing all the work. All the money goes to the instructor. We need 30 spots filled to host the class. We need 12 more people signed up by December 1st to complete the 30 require spots. IMG_6425.jpg
