OUR HISTORY

  The Snowmobile racing history in Boonville New York is second to none.  

  "Winter Warriors" were born AND made here.  

  Eventually nicknamed the "Snowmobile Capital of the East," Boonville was world famous in the 60s and 70s for its racing, which attracted upwards of 40,000 people from all walks of life.

  The original Boonville Snow Festival board dissapated in the late 70s, ending snowmobile racing in Boonville, leaving many wanting more....for decades to come.

   In the summer of 2006, a core group of people gathered to discuss the possibilty of bringing back racing to Boonville.  After getting approval from the "powers that be," the core group formed the Boonville Snow Festival II and held the races in January 2007.

  This year we celebrate 10 great years!

We wouldn't have gotten this far without a great team of hard core volunteers, charitable sponsors, racers, spectators and support from our town and village.  THANK YOU!!

   We'll see you at the Races!
