    Hello LCs,

    Ski season is just around the corner, so things are cranking up here at the club. Lots going on, so please read carefully.

    EQUIPMENT:
    We will do a pre swap internal sale in the team room. The idea is to exchange some good quality race skis, poles, boots between programs (please no training skis). Bring the skis that don’t fit you anymore in the team room on Monday Oct 19th until Thursday, Oct 22nd. Make sure your name and phone # appear and ideally a price for the item.

    Club swap is October 25 at the Bill Warren. Details on the main page.

    You received an email from Alain last week with a ski marking info sheet. This is a great tool for us coaches to use to prepare your skis as best as possible on race day, and to help you understand your skis a little better. Please fill out the form and return it to your coach by October 25th. If you have questions about it, do not hesitate to ask.
