Celebrate the People Who Make Snowmobiling Possible
Every winter, dedicated volunteers, families, clubs, businesses, and industry partners work behind the scenes to keep Oregon's snowmobile trails open, safe, and enjoyable for everyone. Their countless hours of service, passion, and commitment are the foundation of our snowmobiling community.
The Oregon State Snowmobile Association (OSSA) is proud to open nominations for the 2026 OSSA Awards to recognize the individuals and organizations whose efforts make a lasting difference and help keep our sport thriving.
Now is your chance to say "thank you."
Nominate someone whose dedication deserves to be recognized and help us celebrate the people who make Oregon snowmobiling exceptional.
These awards are more than recognition. They are stories of passion, generations of dedication, and thousands of hours given freely to protect, preserve, and grow the sport we all love.
Why Nominate?
Why Nominate?- Behind every smooth trail is a groomer operator who rises before dawn, braving bitter temperatures to ensure a safe and enjoyable ride. — often without thanks or recognition.
- Behind every vibrant snowmobile club is a team of individuals who fundraise, educate, and advocate for access and safety.
- Behind every young snowmobiler is a mentor — a parent, a dealer, a club leader — who lit that first spark of passion. Today’s youth riders are tomorrow’s leaders. Let’s recognize those who are already showing what it means to ride with pride, purpose, and respect.
- Behind every dealer is a person who doesn't just sell snowmobiles — they build relationships, donate time and resources, and act as year-round champions for the snowmobile community.
- Behind every family is generations who chooses to live and give back to this sport — together. Celebrate the families who live and breathe that legacy together.
- Behind every snowmobiler is a person who people show up to every trail cleanup, every fundraiser, and every club meeting — not for recognition, but because they care. Now’s your chance to give back.
These are the people who shape the future of snowmobiling in Oregon.
But too often, their work goes unrecognized. The OSSA Awards are your chance to shine a light on their dedication and say thank you in a way that echoes across the trails for years to come.
Honoring those who keep our trails pristine and our riders safe through tireless dedication to grooming efforts.
