Barnelopet this weekend!

Our annual ski day for kids is this Saturday! Come get a taste of cross country skiing.

Saturday, March 5
9TH ANNUAL BARNELOPET for KIDS
Info: call 434-9753, 249-1869.
The 9th Annual Barnelopet cross country ski day for kids will be held on Sat., Mar. 5 at Skyway on Grand Mesa. This free day for kids ages 3-16 begins with registration in the Skyway parking lot from 10 to 11, free lessons at 11 and a fun race at Noon with distance based on ability. Kids must bring their own personal or rental ski equipment since none will be available on site.

Brought to you by the Sons of Norway Vestafjell Lodge and the Grand Mesa Nordic Council.

We need volunteers willing to take kids out for a short lesson/tour. No need to be a seasoned instructor, just patience and the ability to get them into their skis, give them pointers on how to move foward, how to negotiate hills and help them get up from falls. I’m looking for help from 10 until about 12:30 or any increments of that span. Give Tom a call, 434-9753.
