he snowmobile manufacturers are pleased to announce that the Safe Riders! You Make Snowmobiling Safe© safety campaign is celebrating its 24th year of helping to educate snowmobilers to keep safety at the top of their minds while out riding. The campaign will continue to feature the Safe Riders! poster series, safety brochures, decals, and Snowmobiling Fact Book that we distribute free of charge to safety instructors throughout North America.

The chapters are each 1-3 minutes in length and can be viewed or downloaded from the ISMA website www.snowmobile.org.

The Safe Riders! program has positively influenced, educated, and informed hundreds of thousands of snowmobilers around the world and we have distributed millions of posters, decals, brochures, and Fact Books to the snowmobile community throughout the 24-year history of the campaign.

We are now distributing Safe Riders! information to clubs, associations and safety trainers. If your club or association would like to obtain our free collateral materials, please contact the ISMA office at Susan.Andrews@snowmobile.org to get a copy of our order form. Just fill it out and fax, email or snail mail it back to the office and we can send you the items you are interested in for your use this snowmobiling season.

We are looking forward to a great safe snowmobiling season.
