Northeast Kingdom Snow Blasters

11/07/2025

If you’re pacing the garage, staring at your sled, and whispering..... “soon…” here is some great news to start the weekend.
Mother Nature finally dropped off a little preview in Norton last night and it’s the good kind of white stuff ❄️ (not the kind you have to shovel before work).

Don't forget to guess the exact date and time our groomer will roll out for the first time this season!

Closest guess wins a club hoodie and raffle tickets to our legendary Blaster Bash!

🚨 CONTEST ALERT: GUESS THE FIRST GROOM! 🚨

The SEASON OFFICIALLY STARTS DECEMBER 16, but that doesn’t mean the trails are open or the drag’s rolling just yet.
Mother Nature calls the shots, and we’re waiting on her to deliver the goods.

That first official groom means:
❄️ We’re not just joyriding — the drag is down and trails are being packed.
❄️ Base is frozen solid.
❄️ Temps are staying below freezing.
❄️ Snow’s packable — not fluff, not slop.

🎯 YOUR MISSION:
Drop your best guess HERE: https://www.neksb.com/product-page/first-groom-contest for the DATE AND TIME the first official groom rolls out of the barn.
Closest guess WITHOUT GOING OVER wins 13 RAFFLE TICKETS to the BLASTER BASH and a CLUB HOODIE — because this is our 13TH SEASON and we’re feeling lucky! 🍀

📏 RULES:

Season starts December 16 (doesn’t mean trails are open).

Must have 12 INCHES ON THE STAKE at the Groomer Barn before the drag drops.

The first official groom counts only when the groomer is out PROCESSING TRAIL, not just a test run.

TIEBREAKER: Closest guess on TOTAL HOURS GROOMED that first night wins.

We’ll post the proof when it happens — photo, timestamp, and a few proud faces grinning in the glow of those barn lights.

THINK SNOW, BLASTERS! ❄️ THE COUNTDOWN’S ON.

Trail signing continues in the Blaster trailsystem. Trail Blasters John (Trailmaster) and Dan out on 105 today.

Two bridges on 105 were removed and rebuilt this fall as well as many rocks removed from several miles of the trail which will improve riding and less damage to the grooming equipment.

Thank you everyone so far who bought their early TMA and chose the Northeast Kingdom Snow Blasters . The early purchases also helps the club when we need it most with TMA money to purchase signs, culverts, etc.

“🎀 Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀

This chapter taught me more about strength, gratitude, and love than I ever imagined. From the hardest days of treatment to the pure joy of hearing the words “cancer-free”, every step has been a reminder of how precious life and good health truly are. 💖

To those still fighting: you are stronger than you know.
To the survivors: your resilience is inspiring.
And to everyone reading this: please don’t wait, schedule your screenings, check in with your body, and take care of your health.

Because there really is no greater gift than good health. Cherish it always. 💗✨" - Cherish

Congrats!! 💙❤️
