Kids Race & Potluck Saturday Mar. 2nd

This Saturday, March 2^nd, is our final event of the year.  The weather forecast looks great and the camp has a lot of snow!  As we did last year we will be having our kids “race/tour” and potluck.  Our Bay Nordic Kids race is our own small version of the Barnebirkie.  The kids are encouraged to go at their own pace, whether high speed or at a leisurely pace.  Whatever they choose, we want parents at the start/finish are and along the course with their cowbells, whistles, horns, etc.!  Let’s make this a great event for the kids.

The potluck will include burgers & hot dogs on the grill along with all the side dishes brought by the parents.  The anticipated schedule is as follow:

10:00am – Kids in their groups for a warm-up.

10:20am – Coaches will start gathering kids at the start line.
10:30am – Start of the race/tour. 

                3-4 yr olds:  1/2 to 1 KM (dependent on Coach Sue)

                5-6 yr olds: 2 KM (1 lap)
                7-12 yr olds: 4 KM (2 laps, we will have a cutoff time for the 2^nd lap to make sure we don’t have any kids out too long)
                Skaters (Polar Bears) – 4KM one loop

Following completion all kids will receive their participation medal.  We will not be getting back into groups, the potluck will be ready!

Looking forward to Saturday!
