It received money from the state to groom snowmobile trails.

Default Re: non profit disclosure under freedom of information act

Well in California if you receive state funds to do a project that means you become a public entity and all documents that pertain to that project are public. Under FOIA the same rules will apply, as the public we have the right to know where our tax dollars are going and how they are spent.

Most records are public except for medical records and records that pertain to an ongoing investigation and some others.
