ISHOF announced 2026 Hall of Fame Inductees this morning. It is exciting to find out two of our own local snowmobilers are going to be inducted into the International Snowmobile Hall of Fame.

Mike & Cheryl Clevenger

The Clevenger’s commitment to the sport of snowmobiling began when Mike was 14 years of age. He started working outside the home to earn enough money to purchase his own sled. Little did he know this would become the foundation of his involvement in snowmobiling throughout his adult life. When Mike and Cheryl began dating, she had little experience with snowmobiles. She started out riding with Mike on the back of his sled and eventually purchased a snowmobile of her own so she could ride independently. After they married, they became involved with their local snowmobile club that needed rejuvenation. The Waseca Sno-Seekers was the only club in the Waseca area. Mike wanted to restart the club and Cheryl was there organizing meetings and club events. He became President and within two years there were over 100 family memberships attending meetings and enjoying club outings. This was the start of the Waseca County Trail Association as well as the county becoming the sponsor and owner of trail equipment. Under the leadership of Mike and Cheryl, many weekends were spent brushing, marking and maintaining these snowmobile trails. Soon thereafter, the Clevengers became involved in several clubs around the area and continued their quest for the advancement of snowmobiling. For quite some time, the clubs they were a part of got very involved in snowmobile drag racing venues. These were key fundraisers and as these events grew, they jelled into the Minnesota Snowmobile Drag Racing Series (MSDRS) of which Mike took on the role of race director. Mike became Region 5 Director for the Minnesota United Snowmobilers Association (MnUSA) in the late 1990’s. Eventually the region 5 involvement led to Mike taking on responsibilities of Vice-President and President of MnUSA. Cheryl became involved as Secretary/Treasurer and Publicity Chair. For 15 years Mike and Cheryl spent many hours arranging events and fundraisers. They were the watchdogs informing all 46 clubs in the region of pertinent information and legislation taking place within the state and region. The Clevengers saw the need for snowmobile safety instructors and in 2013, they both took the course to become state certified instructors. Since then, they have taught a minimum of three classes each year at their local clubs. They were selected as MnUSA’s “2026 Family of the Year”. Snowmobiling has become a way of life and a year-round adventure for the Clevengers. It is this unwavering commitment that distinguishes Mike and Cheryl as deserving inductees into the International Snowmobile Hall of Fame, Class of 2026.

I contacted Sen Jasinski regarding SF1245 which would severely restrict ATV trails and their use. He definately opposes this legislation.

From the St Louis Co. Sheriff's report:

At approximately 4:16PM on Saturday, emergency responders responded to the report of a snowmobile crash on snowmobile Trail 51, west of Highway 53, near Canyon, MN.

Investigation then determined that a group of riders were traveling westbound on the trail, and the lead rider (58-year-old male from Faribault, MN) crested a hill and encountered an unoccupied snowmobile parked on the trail.

The rider made an attempt to avoid a collision with the parked snowmobile, but was thrown from his machine, sustaining serious injuries.

The rider was then transported by air to a local hospital, where he would receive medical treatment.

“The Sheriff’s Office would like to remind all snowmobile enthusiasts to always park your machine in a safe location and to make sure it is not a hazard to other riders if there is a need to stop along the trail,” said the press release provided by the St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office.

Alborn Volunteer Fire Department, Grand Lake Volunteer Fire Department, St. Louis County Rescue Squad, Mayo Clinic Ambulance, and Life Link all assisted with this incident.
