The New Tom Sno-Fleas are a non-profit, all volunteer organization where members donate their time and energy to the club and the snowmobiling community.
As of January, 2022 we have approximately 200 members and growing.
There are many different avenues to sign up. The easiest would be to send an email to: snofleassecretary@gmail.com and we will be sure to pass along your inquiry. The success of our club is largely because of the volunteer hours donated by its members. Each year, almost 2,000 hours are donated by members who participate in fall maintenance work, operate the grooming machines during the season, work in the shop prepping and maintaining the equipment, serving in various leadership roles and working at club events.
It all depends on the make, model and year of the machine - anywhere from $250,000 - $350,000.
The New Tom Sno-Fleas owns approximately $1 million worth equipment and uses a variety of equipment to maintain the trails.

The New Tom Sno-Fleas has a multitude of Land Use Agreements with individuals and government agencies that allow us to access their property.
The clubs in Wisconsin have a unique partnership with thousands of landowners and without their generosity, our statewide trail system would not be possible. Unlike other outdoor recreationists, we don't rely on public lands to provide the facilities. Snowmobilers rely on snowmobile clubs and their volunteer members to talk to private property landowners to get permission to be on their property via the trail(s)!.
What many snowmobilers don't understand is that the clubs are given permission to put a trail across that property in an agreed upon route which allows for riding only on the marked corridor. That means anytime someone rides outside of the marked trail, they are trespassing and can be prosecuted.
Every year trails are lost because of off-trail riding and loud exhausts, and re-routing a trail is not as easy as it sounds.
Please be respectful and stay on the trails at all times!
