This winter season marks the 50th anniversary of the Nabob Prairie Riders Snowmobile Club.
The original founding members include families like the Dornackers, Kedingers, Rileys, Retzlaffs, Stoeffels, Holtzs, and Ritgers who formed the club to more closely focus on the trail system within the Nabob area.
These founding members were originally part of the neighboring Allenton Sno Pacers Club, but their desire to have and maintain a new trail system in the Nabob area (primarily around Highways 33, Hwy 144 and I41) led to the formation of the Nabob Club.
Many of the original landowners, their children/grandchildren and others continue to open the same land to snowmobilers.
