Due to lack of interest and volunteer help, the Team Destination Ski Challenge has been cancelled for 2020. If you want to revive this next year, and are prepared to help with it, please send us an email.
At last fall’s AGM there was considerable interest in a Masters Ski group, with members taking turns helping with technique improvement through demos and drills, group skiing, etc. Is there still any interest in this?
We're looking for ideas for the club, both challenges and social activities. Last spring there was a lot of local interest in both, but so far no one has come forward with ideas or offers of help.
Without these other activities, the Club is simply a framework for the kids' Skier Development Program. If you think it should be more than that, please contact us with your thoughts or ideas….and offers to help organize!
Here is the info for the 2019 challenge:
The Team Challenge for 2019 is “I Skied a Lot”, a take off on the Iditarod
Dog Sled race. At 1000 miles/1600 km it is a more manageable goal than last year’s
challenge! The challenge will run January 5th - March 3rd /19 inclusive.
Teams may have up to 8 members and this year a ski outing with the entire
team will give double miles! This is not a race, but a team challenge to support and
reward social skiing. There will be a social potluck in March to give awards. Send
your award worthy ideas…fastest dog? Lead dog?
Please form your teams and have the captain forward the following information to Ann
Carter (anncarter@shaw.ca).
total tallying, etc.
And don’t forget about the Individual Challenges (click here)
If you do them during the Team Challenge dates, they also count as mileage for your team!
