National snowmobile TV program spotlights Old Forge trail system

Local snowmobile trail systems will be featured on the national cable series, Snow Trails TV, on Sunday mornings at 7:30 a.m. EST beginning October 16 on Fox Sports Network North, Fox Sports Network Detroit and Madison Square Garden PLUS Network.

Rebroadcasts will be shown weekdays on Time Warner Cable channel 54 and on HD channel 801.

The Town of Webb will be featured in both national and regional broadcasts along with tourism agencies from Lewis, Oneida and Oswego counties.

The episode featuring snowmobile trails in and around Webb will air on Sunday, November 13 and will be rebroadcast on December 4.

Snow Trails TV works in cooperation with organized snowmobiling entities to provide public communication and education about recreational snowmobiling.

The program also spotlights the economic impact of snowmobiling, proper equipment and safety segments.

It reaches 27,000,000 television households weekly.

Webb Publicity Director Mike Farmer rode with Snow Trails TV’s “Video Mike” Grant and his film crew last February to capture footage of the snowmobile trails in and around Old Forge.

The Snow Trails TV crew extended their stay in Old Forge to showcase the local area and business community.

At the conclusion of the filming, Grant said, “We have to get back here. This is what it’s all about. Family snowmobiling, professional grooming, economic impact-Old Forge is ‘Snowmobile Central.'”
