                            REMEMBER    www.vtvast.org  FOR VT. SLEDDING INFO.

Spring conditions exist with better snow cover in the extreme southern and northern portions of Vermont. Best to check the VAST site for trail conditions and closures. Warm springlike weather is affecting the snow quality and quantity. Some towns are closing the "winter" roads to  sled traffic as the snow leaves so please be respectful to the abutting landowners.

Family TMA
Family Snowmobiling ­ Issued to families with children up to 18 years of age or up to 22 year's of age if they are enrolled in a school of higher education. To be eligible, all snowmobiles must be registered to the same family member or the same family member's name must appear on each registration as the co-owner & same mailing address. First two TMAs purchased at the "Early Bird" or "Regular Season" rate for Regular or Volunteer categories. The third, fourth, fifth or any subsequent TMAs sold at 1/2 the applicable Regular rate, from "Family TMA"

Q. Does the same family members' name have to appear on all snowmobile registrations?
A. Yes, just because individuals have the same mailing address will not be the only criteria for issuing Family TMAs! The intent of the family TMA is to make it more affordable for families with younger children to enjoy the sport of snowmobiling; it is not to allow young working adults an opportunity to get a lower price.

Q. Do all Family TMAs have to be purchased at the same place?
A. No, as long as the individual has proof of the other purchase(s) they may buy the Family TMAs from different clubs.

Q. What if my name is on two registrations and my wife's name is on the third, will this qualify for a Family TMA?
A. No, VAST recommends that all family owned snowmobiles be registered with at least one common person as the owner or co-owner. This is recommended for legal reasons and it is a requirement for issuing Family TMAs.

Q. Is it easy to add a co-owner's name to a snowmobile registration?
A. Yes, it is! It can be done at the Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles in Montpelier (DMV); in addition, any VAST appointed snowmobile registration agent is able to complete the changes for you.
