BORDEN, Sask. – Around 200 riders from Saskatchewan took to the trails for the Borden Snowmobile Rally on Saturday afternoon.
Snowmobilers stared off at the Borden Community Centre and competed on 80 and 130 kilometre marked trails on the snow-covered prairie.

Proceeds will go toward renovating the community centre.
Locals say the upgrades will make a big difference for the many people who actively use the facility.
“Last year we had 350 riders so it was really a good turnout for our first one, so we’re hoping for the same,” said rally organizer Gloria Derbowka.
