Post 2 of 2020




Welcome Skiers and Families. 

Season 2020 is getting organized and on the way! 

If you have not given me an email address please do so.  We are putting together a team email list “ScoutNordic”.  This is our main outlet for news, blog, schedules etc. 

Other areas of information – Facebook at ScoutNordic   and Remind.  The school website is not easily updated please look at these options for information.  (Detailed info on how to find these is on Post 1)

Included in the information packet is 99% of what you need to know about the team.  See Post 1 of 2020. Please read it. 

Information not included in the packet:
1)      Suggested you find a way to have a water bottle and some way to carry it.  Hydration is just as important in the cold as the heat!
2)      Please pack a snack for before skiing.  Nordic skiers can burn as many as 600 to 1000cal an hour.  They can eat on the bus on the way to the ski trails or eat before loading.  (Granola bars, crackers, fruit, bagels etc.) Something with protein right after practice , on the bus will help with recovery and keep the angry hungry animals at bay. (Chocolate milk, protein bar, string cheese, jerky.) Please try to send low sugar and healthy foods.

Ski Team Clothing:
Order forms for team shirts and team tights are attached to this post.  A jersey for races will be provided if you choose not to order.  Ski tights are what most skiers wear to race in.  They are not warm and need a base layer under them. Neither shirt or tights are required for our team.  PLease do not feel obligated.


Most Important information:
