The Vision, The Idea, The Plan, The Event ~ Jerry Kienbaum & Joel Wheeler
Back in 2008 an Idea and the Plan to have a Racer Reunion Circle began.
In July of 2009 it became Reality.
With the efforts of many Vintage Snowmobile Enthusiasts
and
The expert coordination, funding and specific planning of Jerry Kienbaum,
the very first Vintage Snowmobile Racer Reunion in The Northwest was an event.
With Jerry's Family, Friends and Vintage Sled Comrades the show materialized.
SNOPRO USA was honored
to be a part of the plan and debut it to The World online.
High above SnoPro USA
captured the epic photos for the shirts and posters of the event.
Over the past
10 years this event has been revered as
The Premier Vintage
Snowmobile Event in The Northwest.
Jerry Kienbaum has since
passed away, but his spirit and passion is still strong
in regards to his efforts
and contributions to the vintage snowmobile community
across America, Canada
and Globally.
Jerry Kienbaum within his circle of Race
Sleds, July 18th, 2009.
Vision, Focus and Determination.
It was and honor to plan
and innovate with Jerry Kienbaum from 2008-2014
Most of All.....
It is a privilege to
be a part of the 10th Year Anniversary of The 2019 Racer Reunion.

PRIEST LAKE HISTORY
The history of the lake dates back almost 10,000 years to the end of the last ice age.
After the vast glaciers that covered most of the area receded and vegetation started to re-grow,
humans started to resettle the area. This is evident from historical artifacts found in the
area and ancient rock art along the lake.
The first white settlers arrived in the
early 19th century.
These early settlers were mainly fur trappers
who quickly established trade with the native Kalispel Tribe.
Jesuit Priests would eventually settle
the lake in the 1840s and establish a base camp at Kalispell Bay.
One of these priests, Father Pierre-Jean
DeSmet, a native Belgian who had escaped from European
persecution and became the most trusted
of the white men among the Western Native Americans,
named the lake Roothaan Lake for
one of his superiors in Rome.
The name would not stick though and in
1865 Captain John Mullan, a U.S. Army Captain
who was traveling through the area under
orders to build the "Mullan Trail" from Walla Walla, Washington
to Fort Benton, Montana after the discovery
of silver in the central Idaho mountains along
what today is the route of Interstate
90, would rename the lake Kaniksu.
Kaniksu is believed to be the native
word for "black robe" and because
of the Jesuit presence, the lake was
later named Priest Lake.
