Activities
Winter Blast
Each year the Prince Gallitzin State Park staff host a “Winter Blast” event at the Main Marina. Activities include sled riding, cross country skiing, ice fishing, and other winter sports. The Friends of Prince Gallitzin State Park serves free hotdogs and hot chocolate. Our club has a bonfire to keep you warm and makes mountain pies over the fire for you. When conditions permit, we give snowmobile rides to introduce the sport to newcomers. Hope to see you there. It is a “Blast”! Watch for Events posted on our Glendale Lake Snowmobile Club Group Facebook page for specific dates and times.
Trail Maintenance
Throughout the year we organize workdays to maintain and improve the existing trail systems. Work includes clearing downed trees, improving trail drainage, and repairing existing structures. In addition to ongoing maintenance activities, we also undertake projects to increase the existing trail system. See our “Projects” page for more details on some of our past projects. Watch for Events posted on our Glendale Lake Snowmobile Club Group Facebook page for specific dates and times.
2022 Summer Picnic & Power Sports Show
Too warm to ride, but we can still get together for fellowship and story telling. Each summer we have a club picnic at the Patton Sportsmens Association. This year it is both a picnic and power sports show. Come for some great food, sledder’s comradery, and check out new toys our picnic sponsors are bringing. Plus register to win one of two restored Arctic Cats sleds and/or kids battery toys. See the event poster to the left. Watch for other events posted on our Glendale Lake Snowmobile Club Group Facebook page for specific dates and times.
Apple Cider Festival Booth
The Prince Gallitzin State Park and Friends of Prince Gallitzin State Park co-host the Apple Cider Festival at Muskrat Beach #2 each Fall. We have a booth at the Festival to great newcomer’s questions about snowmobiling in the region. If you attend the Festival, be sure to stop by and say hi!

Santa ends the parade and brings in the snowmobile season. Our club participates in the Altoona Christmas Parade with the very important job of sledding in Santa to conclude the parade. Watch for Events posted on our Glendale Lake Snowmobile Club Group Facebook page for specific dates and times.
