Stittsville & Dwyer Hill Snowmobile Association (SDHSA)

After 32 years of incorporation, SDHSA made the step in fulfilling the commitment of joining the BEAST, by not renewing the club’s not-for-profit incorporation status in 2008. SDHSA no longer has any official club status at the OFSC level, but  continues to operate as a sector within the BEAST.

Reducing the overhead of operating as a separate club allows the past SDHSA executive to put their full effort into the continued growth of the BEAST. The eventual folding of all three clubs that together make up the BEAST was the original vision when the BEAST was first formed. The SDHSA was the first club in the BEAST to move toward this direction, and the other clubs have followed this model over time.

The SDHSA has had a great run. The club received honor at the Annual General Meeting of the OFSC in September 2007, for being part of the OFSC for 25 years. The time had come to make the next step and move into a more efficient mode of operation to maximize the trail potential.
