    Bravo to all the kiddos for great efforts today. The U12 did an epic two lap caliber Olympic course. Give yourself a pat on the back. The U10 had a course change 3 minutes prior to starting and rocked it. Resilience training disguised as ski racing. High five humans!

    More of the same tomorrow. Format changed to individual start. The best of Canada is competing at the Olympic trials which start at 12:30. Bring a picnic and your cowbells and cheer on Canada’s best after the kids race.

    Prior to drop off pick up your child’s bib at Wax Room 2. Be sure your child has had a bathroom visit prior.

    Warm up: volunteers will warm up and get the kiddos to the start line. There will be spots on the course for you all to cheer wildly. Please meet your child at the finish line and if it is the right thing to do, the kids can do a free flow 15 minute ski together/ play session after eating their apres race treat.

    Glide wax: CH4 or equivalent -10 temperature range. If you are feeling keen, glide wax and scrape your classic skis. Glide waxing kids skis is not mandatory and, at this age, does not effect performance. If you don’t have wax, your least favourite Christmas candles work too. It can be a fun or funny family activity.

    A reminder from the Organizing Committee, We are still in COVID times so we need to limit our time at the venue. Please Arrive- Warm Up- Race- Cool Down- Depart. Don’t linger and hang out at the venue.
