Whoa! Can you believe Hay Days is already behind us?!?! What an event\u2014actually, it\u2019s more than an event, it\u2019s an experience.  And I\u2019d argue it\u2019s even more than what the Hay Days slogan suggests. It\u2019s even more than the \u201cOfficial Start of Winter\u2019; attending Hay Days and seeing everything it has to offer should be thought of as a rite of passage for all powersports enthusiasts! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have been attending this event for twenty years now. And as my kids approach the age when I first attended Hay Days, it\u2019s hard not to get nostalgic about the event. I first attended the event as a teenager, roaming blindly through the aisles looking for anything I could afford that could make my 1999 XCF 440 faster (or at least look faster!). Flashing forward to recent years my family of four typically camps at one of the nearby campgrounds, or we\u2019ll bring the camper into the swap meet if we have sleds and parts we need to sell. And while vendors, racers, and technology come and go year after year, one thing that has remained constant is the energy for and passion around the sport of snowmobiling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
