FRIDAY SNOW GAUGE REPORT UPDATE: (1-21-11): An unexpected snow storm dumped on Drummond over night! The total now stands at 12 inches. The plows are out in full force this morning!

SNOWMOBILING FANS:
The Groomer is back out this morning! All this new snow is really leaving a nice trail behind as he works his way over the trail system on the West End.

East End conditions are still only *Fair* due to the 2 areas that had been plowed down to almost gravel.

INTERNATIONAL ICE BRIDGE TO CANADA: The *building* of the ice bridge will happen this weekend – Saturday, January 22nd. Customs officials will begin to man the Island offices full time on January 23rd and the Bridge will officially open at that time. Before you cross make sure you have the appropriate ID paperwork.
