Hey guys,

We need to make a change to the plans for tomorrow.  The HS trails aren't groomed right now so we'll go up to Pineland.
Be there at the outdoor center by 8:45 am so that we can begin skiing (classic)  at 9:00.  That will give us time to get a practice in and still get to the team breakfast.  Waxing will follow the breakfast.

Saturday.....(going to be cold)

Bring warm clothes and something to protect your face from the cold.

OK everyone.  Here’s the latest.

For a change of scenery, we will meet at the HS tomorrow at 9:45 and carpool to Harris Farm in Dayton to ski.  We will need drivers.  Let me know how many people you can take. We will follow the workout plan that Coach Barry posted on the blog, both classic and skate.  We’ll ski for a couple hours in the morning, have lunch and then ski for an hour in the afternoon.

You will need a lunch, snacks and water bottles.
You will also need $5 for a trail pass.
Remember to bring both pair of skis.

Tomorrow night there is a team dinner at the Praticos.  They would like to have people bring a couple of salads and a couple of desserts.

Please email me with if you can drive people, if you can bring food to the Praticos and if you have any questions.
