A man who wandered the streets at one in the morning, gets arrested by police who asked him: "Where are you going to like this at this hour? " And the man replied: "I'm going to a conference on alcohol abuse and their effects on the human body. " The officer asks him: "Really? ... And indeed, that may well provide such a lecture at this hour of the night? " And the man replied, "My wife" ps:translation maybe not exactly right????? groomer !!!

JULIAN CABANA 12/01/2011 10:27 http://lejournaldequebec.canoe.ca/jo...12-102744.html In recent years, snowmobilers had problems on some trail in the Snowmobile Club Beauceville, Chaudière-Appalaches. The club volunteers have come to settle the case, ensuring the survival of their club. "We are particularly proud to have resolved this issue because, now, riders can come in and move freely, without risking the imposition of the offenses, said the club spokesman, Mimi Drouin. You should know that the stretch that caused us problems was the intersection of Trans Quebec 75 and 55, trails are essential for our region. You understand that for this reason, the importance for us to have succeeded in creating a new trail that will bypass this site which gave us quite a bit of trouble. " The portion of trail in question was between the local club and Saint-Georges de Beauce. Initially, volunteers were required to travel more than four kilometers to snowmobilers on Saint Charles. They had managed to reduce the distance to 1.5 km in winter except that the row was on earth, snowmobilers are allowed to pass on the grounds of some homes to find the snow they need for free movement. This is where the problems started. Police and tickets "The end of last season has been hell for us. The owners have complained to the police because snowmobilers spent on their turf. The police came and handed out tickets to snowmobilers offense. At some point, they were there permanently. Imagine all the nonsense that we were entitled. Snowmobilers simply did more to come here, "said the spokesman. Finally, the problem was solved with the arrival of a new portion of trail. "We managed to convince a friend of snowmobilers to let us make a path on its farmland. We finally granted permission, which led to the construction of a new stretch of more than two miles that solves all problems. We stood in the club we were in the relay between the Trans Quebec. " Some will ask why have discussed this case in this column. Just to give an example of what must live volunteers to ensure the survival of trails in Quebec. For the club of 165 members, he had to invest $ 11 000 for the creation of this new trail. Fortunately for the volunteers, they received help from the Federation of Snowmobile Clubs Quebec. If the club Beauceville is not unique. Annually, many volunteers have to invest time and money to create and maintain a trail system that benefits many people, in terms of economic benefits. One way to reduce the disadvantages of this kind would be for volunteers to work on creating a permanent trail system, to which committed the Minister for Transport, Norman MacMillan. Volunteers make this request in 30 years. It is hoped that this time is the charm. groomer !!!
