see you at the banquet

So what can I say it has been an incredible season

You have all made me very proud to be your coach, you inspire me with your effort and enthusiasm for the sport and competition.

We are getting together in a couple of weeks to have a banquet, until then be active and healthy and ski when you can.

Look forward to seeing you all soon

Midget Championships Trip fee

As a club we have a trip fee, it covers the cost of: gas, hotel rooms for the coaches and food.  For this trip we are bringing the trailer and van as well as renting 2 rooms for the 4 coaches attending.

The trip fee is $65 per athlete

The reason we don't build this into the program cost is because we believe that only the people who go to races should cover the trip fee, if you have any questions about this please do not hesitate to talk to me about it.  My aim is always to keep this as low as possible while providing the best race support.



Plan this week


Saturday & Sunday - race at Midget Championships




Meeting notes

Feb 15 - 21

Hi All

Happy family day,

Family day is a good day for a 90 min ski, the weather is supposed to be perfect today so feel free to get out and take the dog and head into the bush for a bush wack ski.  If you don't have a dog and want to stay on the beaten path then maybe check out some of the back trails at Hardwood.

Have a great day,

Ron

Friday - Hardwood SOD night race - I would like everyone to do this race here is the link https://zone4.ca/reg.asp?id=11182&lan=1&cartlevel=1

Monday, 8 February 2016

Feb 8 - 14

Hi All

I heard that the weekend was fun with an adventure, hope everyone had a great time.

This week we are going to work a bit on classic to get you ready for midget championships in 2 weeks, please bring your classic skis up on Saturday and arrive in lots of time to wax your skis before practice.  If you don't have classic that is ok because we have some fishscales that you can borrrow.

Sunday is the Suntrail special in Owen Sound, I will be taking the Van up from Barrie, it is about a 2 hour drive.  It is a paraffin series race so it would be great if everyone could make it to keep our club standing.

There are some amazing pictures from James from the weekend, here is a link to his flicker album.





Training this week


Wednesday - Hardwood 5-7pm 60 to 90 min distance classic - meadowlands

Saturday - 1 - 4pm - classic ski

Saturday 1-2pm - parents meeting for Junior and Mini Program in the house, it is a quick update on the program and checking in to make sure everything is on track for midget championships.



Sunday - Suntrail special in Owen Sound I will be driving the van up at 6:30am from Georgian College in Barrie
