Last week of the season


This is most of the  that skied this past weekend here in Laramie.
Well done! It was a long race in very harsh conditions.

This week is our last week of the season.  Wow it has been a fast season.  We have true skiers today where at the beginning of the season we had beginners!

Practice is Skate all week.  Leave those nasty klistered skis in the shed!  Plan on working hard the first part of the week then a bit of fun toward the end.  

Friday - Wax day we will clean your classic skis of all the sticky goo,  Wax your skate skis and clean the shed.  We need all to be there to help.
