between 1067 and 1070 was good way to starve according to Bing Jowett owner of Four Seasons Sports and Marine Ten years ago Mr Jowett decided hed had enough of working for someone else so be packed up his family and mov ed back to his hometowu Wasaga Beach and opened garage to sell and service boats and snowmobiles For the first few years Mr Jowett said we didnt know which way was going to go But by 1071 the winter sports boom was in full swing and his business began to boom as well Since then he has moved from the garage to the present location at the corner of Mosely and 19th Streets and has put three additions on the original building He now employs two fulltime and two parttime mechanics two office staff and often Iias enough work to keep some of his children busy as well TRAILDIIHT Mr Jowett credits the trunk trail which runs from Barrie to Collingwood through Wasaga Beach with attracting more and more snowmobilers to Wasaga Beach every winter Riding on the trunk trail is just like driving on highway he said Its really made difference in snow mobiling around here Mr Jowett said he expects more snowmobilers to visit Wasaga Beach once good trail maps are available and the Chamber of Commerce promo tion program reaches more people in southern Ontario But more snowmobilers can also mean more headaches for the Wasaga Snowmobile Club of which Mr Jowett is member He said club members von vinced private property owners to let the club set up trails on their land and he wants to make sure that visitors respect the property and operate their machines safely Snowmobile sales said Mr Jowett have run in cycle since 1971 IN YtLIJ That year he said the business hit its peak but then dropped off in 1974 and 1975 because People got tired of running up and down in straight line But now that the trails are becoming popular he said business is picking up again Mr Jowett said he expects to 055 $500000 this year but he attributes much of this winters success to the abundant snowfall in the area One of six district directors of the Huronia Snowmobile Association Mr Jowett said one of the hardest things he has seen in the past few years is the number of area snowmobile dealers who have been orCed to close their doors He said 30 dealership fail in the last three or four years They failed he said because the owners did not stay open all vcar You have to go all year he said Its just as crazy for ski resort to stay empty all sum mer as it is for us to stay closed all winter
