Here is to one week on snow and some good practices.  Who would have predicted this crazy weather ad closed roads and all. 

We have a busy week ahead of us.  Practices and our first meet, The Laramie Invite.  Please watch for info specific to the Invite in another mailing. 

I have had some interesting conversations with some of our ski team members this past week.  Some say they do not want to race this race because it is a Classic (Non-Skating event).  I understand having a preference in techniques etc.  If your skier has a desire to Nordic Ski in high school, there is no choice.  A high school meet has both skating and classic involved and skiers have to be able to do both.  It is the Middle School season where we learn both skills. With that said I hope all skiers will decide to give this race a try. There are distances for both experienced and novice skiers.  Skiers with only skate skis will be waxed for classic skiing.  And expected to use the classic technique.  Skating in a Classic Race is disqualification.

Parents- we still have space for you to help with our meet.  

A note from Transportation- starting this Monday -masks or face coverings will be required while riding an activity  or sport bus. All skiers will need a mask while on the bus to and from practice.  Please plan according and put a mask in with your ski gear. 

Attached is an order blank for scout Nordic T-shirts and beanies, the date on the order blank says due the  10th but we are extending this to next Friday the 14th.  These shirts run large.  

 

There are a select pairs of LMS Lightning tights left.  They are 35$  sizes Adult Sm and Adult Med.
