In the fall of 1973,about 15 families got together to
discuss the possibility of breaking away from their
current club to organize a club of their own.
They thought it would be worthwhile to establish
another club and be in charge of their own trails
.
After several meetings were held to establish
by-laws and a constitution,the Kohlsville Kruisers
were on their own.Ralph Martin was the first
president of the club.
In the first years of the clubs existance there were
about 50 members.
The club's first grooming device was a snowmobile
that pulled bedsprings behind it.In 1981,a "CAT"
and a homemade groomer were used to maintain
the trails.
"Tucker Sno-Cat Groomer"
One of the clubs biggest purchases was made in May
of 1984 when they purchased a Bombadier to pull the
Groomer.In 1994 the club,with help of area businesses
and other community members,purchased a brand new
Arrowhead groomer.In 1996,the club sold the "Bombi"
and bought a used Tucker Sno Cat,which was bigger than
the "Bombi".With the Tucker Sno Cat and new groomer
combination,grooming the trails is fun and fast!!
"bridge replacement"
The Club is currently resonsible for almost 20 miles of
snowmobile trails.
Our trails contain a section of state corridor 34,which
connects to 25,000 miles of state funded trails throughout
Wisconsin.
Kohlsville is located 40 miles Northwest of Milwaukee in
the northwest corner of Washington County.
