Arctic Cat Day

It's sunny and getting very humid here. After breakfast we went to find the Arctic Cat Plant. We stayed in the parking lot and worked on the Blog and e-mail until it was time for the tour. About 12:45 several RV's pulled into the plant parking lot. They were here for tours also and they came from Texas, Illinois,and Alaska.

We started through the plant at 1PM. They were making Bear Cats and ATV's today on the line. It was interesting to see the frames hanging from the ceiling on a conveyer belt that moves them through the paint area and various stations. They attach the handlebars, hoods, seats, and coverings as they move down the line. We watched the quality control area for the ATV's and watched them run it through a check before driving it onto a platform for packaging. Being a snowmobile family this was very interesting. Unfortunately they would not let us take pictures in the plant.

Went back to the casino and then watched TV and got ready to move out tomorrow.
