Paul Bunyan Riders Snowmobile Club

About Paul Bunyan Riders Snowmobile Club

The Paul Bunyan Riders Snowmobile Club began as a collaboration of local businesses in the late 1960s to attract winter visitors to the Lakewood area. Our first meeting was held in September 1969, and we proudly incorporated in November 1970. For over 50 years, we’ve been serving the community and are now over 500 members strong. We are a 100% AWSC (Association of Wisconsin Snowmobile Clubs) member club.

We groom 79.1 miles of funded and 6.2 miles of unfunded trails using top-notch equipment, including two 2012 Tucker Terra Sno-Cats, a 2022 New Holland T6 Tractor with tracks, and a 2019 New Holland Power Star for brushing and trail work. Each grooming machine is equipped with a 10.6 ft. ultimate folding drag to help ensure our trails are among the best in Northern Oconto County.

The Paul Bunyan Riders are proud to support the community that supports us. Through our Giving Back Program, we consider donation requests from individuals, groups, or nonprofit organizations that serve our local area or promote the sport of snowmobiling. This program allows us to do more than ride—it helps us leave meaningful tracks in the community.

Lakewood was officially recognized as a Snowmobile Friendly Town in March 2026—an honor that speaks to the quality of our trails, our focus on safety and education, and the strong collaboration between our club, local businesses, and public safety partners. The Paul Bunyan Riders are proud to play a key role in this effort, helping ensure that riders enjoy a safe, well-maintained, and welcoming trail system throughout the area.

A heartfelt thank you to all our members, volunteers, and landowners. Your ongoing support makes our trail system possible. Without our dedicated volunteers and supportive landowners, there would be no trails.
