Bay Nordic – Thank You!
Thank you to all the kids participating with Bay Nordic this winter. It's great to see so much interest in the program---over 160 kids registered this year. Our goal has always been to provide an avenue to introduce kids to sport and provide an opportunity to have fun and develop a passion for the sport. Whether a kid uses that passion for competition or as an active outdoor hobby, we succeed. Skiing is one of those great activities that can be done at the highest competition, with the family, and just a way to get out and enjoy the outdoors.
In spite of such a challenging winter to find snow in the area, we had a great day for skiing this past Saturday. The lack of on-snow practice didn't deter all the smiles at the finish line (much like a lot of adults I know in the Birkie). Perfect snowball making snow helped with the smiles also!
Pictures of this weekend as well as the January 21st event are also posted at http://shoffmanphoto.smugmug.com/CrossCountrySkiing-2011/Bay-Nordic-2012.
One last thank you to all the coaches and volunteers helping with the program! We fully volunteer based, so local skier support of the kids program is crucial to continued success.
We will have the final rental return date out this week.
Let it snow December 1st 2012!
