Overview

Mission

The Shawnee Snochiefs serve the Niagara County region of Western New York with the mission of promoting the safe and responsible activity of snowmobiling across the state. We work to engage and protect landowners through a robust landowner education and appreciation program, to educate the next generation of snowmobilers through snowmobile training programs and to enhance the availability of high quality recreation opportunities available to residents of the area.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 92% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
