Copy: Red Arrow Snowmobile ATV Club of Townsend held a fundraiser recently for the benefit of the Lakewood-Townsend Ambulance Service. The event held at Birch Hills Resort in Townsend was a great success and attracted a large crowd. The fundraiser was part of a “Family Fun Day” held by Red Arrow that included a membership meeting, group trail ride and a party on the beach at Birch Hills.

Thanks to Dawn and Renee of Birch Hills for hosting this event and to Hillcrest Lodge next door who sent their Bass Fishing Tournament attendees over to the party. Team Hawg Seeker donated $100.00 of entry fees entry fees to our event and we thank them also.

Red Arrow Snowmobile ATV Club is a year round club that includes both snowmobile and ATV enthusiasts. Townsend is located right on the 89 mile long Nicolet State Recreational Trail allowing both snowmobile and ATV/UTV access south to Gillett and north to the Michigan border and beyond. The club maintains area trails year round.

Townsend is one of the highest elevation areas in Wisconsin and that helps us keep our snow!!! The Carter hills between us and Carter are 1,781 feet above sea level vs Oconto at 530 feet...it does make a difference. The highest range is just northwest of us in Forest County at Sugerbush Hill...that area is 1,939 feet above sea level. Kent Tower Hill in Langlade County is 1,903 feet.
