S 528 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act to establish a free snowmobile weekend

This bill proposes creating an annual three-day event called a "free snowmobile weekend" for non-residents in Massachusetts. During this specific time, which would be set each year, non-residents with valid out-of-state or Canadian snowmobile registrations could ride on public lands and private lands partnered with local clubs without needing to register or buy a trail pass. The program would be organized by the Massachusetts Office of Law Enforcement in cooperation with the Snowmobile Association of Massachusetts.
