I think I received the copy from Bob for our newsletter. I was the editor for the short lived CSHM newsletter. It was called "The Megaphone"!

Found an old CBC show covering the Bozak. Likely from early 90s. Cleaned it up as best I could be the tape was degraded.

This has been a very intresting read thanks for posting this stuff. I didn't know that there was this much history in Manitoba on snowmobiling , I knew about polaris in Beausejour but thats it. Also if you watch the video close you can see the first snowboarder. Pretty cool

That clip was made for a TV Show called Coleman & Company back on March 17th, 1997. They were out at my grandparents farm for two days filming this video. I spoke to my Uncle Bob tonight and he has the original VHS tapes that CBC provided them!

Big race tomorrow..... Bob will be taking his drag sled for vintage display and parade lap on the track! Be there for noon!!

Thank you for posting that video!
