MANDATORY BOOSTER CLUB MEETING
Sunday 6:30 - 8:00 at Eastview, enter west entrance and follow signs. Winter Trip and other important items will be discussed. Parents please make every effort to attend, skiers need not attend.
PARENT ASSISTANCE NEEDED - Sunday 1:00-3:00
We are asking for parent volunteers to meet at Valleywood Golf Course this Sunday @ 1:00 pm (with sledge hammers if you have them) to help install snow fencing on the ski course. The installation of this fencing minimizes trail work we need to do over the course of the season.
WAXING CLINIC: SATURDAY 12/05/09 1:00-5:00
There will be a waxing clinic for new skiers on Saturday from 1-5 at the ISD 196 Area Learning Center located at 5840 149th Street W. off of Johnny Cake Ridge Road and County Road 42 in Apple Valley. All new skiers and any interested parents should attend. Bring your skis and we will get the first coats of wax on them as we teach you the basics of glide and kick waxing for cross country skiing.
