Membership
There is already a nice snow base on Mt Washington, so it looks like it will be a good year for skiing! Visit Zone 4 to register for SNSC membership and programs.
Club Clothing
We have put in an order for tights and jerseys. There were not enough requests for jackets to put in an order – we needed at least 10 and there were only 5. If anyone is still interested in jackets let me know, and we can put in an order at a later date. sueblox@live.com
Rabbits
There is still time to register for the coaching workshop this weekend. It’s a great way to learn new skills and support the Rabbit Skills Development Program. Contact dl_johnston@shaw.ca Be sure to register your children for Rabbit programs before registration closes at the end of the month, December 31.
“Cross-Country Skiing: A Sport For Life”
Cross Country Canada (CCC) just posted, “Cross-Country Skiing: A Sport For Life.” This guidebook, which is consistent with Sport Canada’s Long Term Athlete Development Resource Paper but customized to cross-country skiing, explains the conceptual framework for athlete development in our sport and provides essential guidance for change and improvement that can help us achieve our goals of fostering both life-long participation and international excellence. This document is now available for download in English & French on CCC website.
