Come see a brand new snowmobile museum! Long-time member Huck Willis invites you.
He and his family have delivered three floors of interesting snow machines! Some 150 - 200 sleds.
The basement level will be interesting. The Willis family have gathered up many species of local trees that are shown on the basement walls. Much of the wood is from their lots. (I hope they don't tack any memorabilia to these walls.)
In addition, that weekend, an adjacent street will be blocked off for ASCOA member sled display. On Saturday, we will assemble the 1963 Ski Doo. There is a local-fare lunch on Saturday.
The museum and hotel are a bit south-east of Peoria, Illinois.
The museum is in the town of Hopedale, at 202 NW Main Street, Hopedale Il. 61747. Call Huck at 309 241 6530, or mailto:huck_blondie@yahoo.com
A block of rooms at $ 89.99 have been reserved at PARK INN by Radisson in nearby Morton, Illinois 61550. The hotel is 16 miles away, up towards Peoria
