Pound Road Fire
December 29th, 2020To all our members, 2020 has been a rough year for many of us however for one of our neighbors near the clubhouse and residents of Madison, tragedy struck. Saturday December 19th the home of Sarah MacDonald and Paul Harvey caught fire and unfortunately was a total loss. The couple is safe including Sarah’s mom who was there at the time. This happened just before Christmas making it even worse, everything they owned is gone. If you have been through something like this you know what it can do to you.
As neighbors to us on Pound Road we are asking for donations if you have the ability and can help out the couple. There is a Go fund me page on the Town of Madison’s FB page if you choose to utilize that. This page also has more details. If you can and wish to help please send a check to SOS and in the memo just indicate MacDonald so we can direct the funds. Sean Pinard has been in contact with Nancy Harmon, a friend of the Sarah and Paul’s, she is heading up fundraising and the go fund me page. There has been talk of articles of clothing however at this point it seems they may be in good shape already with that, money unfortunately is the best thing at this time.
If you have any questions please contact Sean Pinard

Trail Work Pending Available Help
December 23rd, 2020Ok all, we did not originally list a work party for this coming Saturday as it is the day after Christmas and many will be hope with their families. However if you are not and looking for something to do, we have some work! We still have some maintenance to do on our 2000 Tucker, possible some more work on the 1000 if we are not using it. We have a large tree ready to come down between junctions Q & G. Possibly one to come down between Junctions T & M We still have a handful of trails that have not been checked and may need brushing as well as a few area’s that could use some signing.
If you are around, available and would like to help out let us know. We need to know if anyone is available to plan out some work and maybe breakfast. You can respond to Sean Pinard @ smpinard@roadrunner.com thank you
