Sign-Up Night December 12th

Sign Up Night will be December 12th, from 6-7pm in meeting rooms A & B in the VMH basement.  I will have a short presentation on the Ski Club and then you can fill out the registration forms and pay the fees ($40 for registration and $60 for rental gear, if needed).  Bring a check or cash.

After you complete the forms you can head over to BlueDog to pick up your rental gear.

Practices will be at the VFW in Viroqua again this year, on Mondays from 3:45 to 5:00.

Planning Meeting

We will meet at Bluedog on Monday at 6:00 pm to discuss the upcoming season.  Join us if you would like to help with the ski club this year.  There are coaching and other positions available.  Bring a friend if you would like them to help.  Bring a snack or a drink if you like.

See you tomorrow. Thanks.

Time to plan for 2017

Greetings Skiers!

I'd like to have a planning meeting on Monday, November 28th from 6-8pm.  It will be at a location in Viroqua TBD.

I will make some contacts before then to see what our venue options might be.  For now, I'm thinking of having practices on Monday afternoons, beginning on January 9th and running for 8 weeks.

Who should come to the planning meeting?  Anyone that is interested in helping with the club this year.  We are always looking for coaches... you don't need a lot of skiing experience, but you should be good with kids and enjoy being outside in the winter.  We have a great curriculum to work off.  There are also ski club positions to fill.

I anticipate that sign-up night will be Monday December 12th from 6-8pm.

Stay tuned for more details.

Please return skis

I hope everyone had fun skiing this winter.  Please return your gear to Bluedog if you haven't already done so.  Thanks for another fun season!

One more practice!

"Skiers on Bridge" - by Jerry

Thanks for the fun at KVR last week.  I know it was a bit of an adventure for some, but I hope everyone enjoyed themselves.  It was a beautiful evening.

I looked at the VFW on Monday morning, and I think we can squeeze in one more practice on Wednesday before the snow is gone.  Check the blog Wednesday morning for any last minute details.

I think we can use the big barbeque grill again.  I will bring about 2 dozen brats and a dozen dogs.  If you and your skiers might be hungry after practice, bring some buns or something else for the grill and help us eat them.

WEDNESDAY at KVR

Sorry for the last minute switcharoo, but we're back to Wednesday, still at the Reserve.
The plan is to meet at the Visitor Center at 4 pm, or a little earlier.  Then we'll drive to Old 131 & Cty Hwy P (near Bridge 14 transition area).  We will ski back the Visitor Center.  I think most kids can handle this pretty easily, it is not too far.  There may be a small group of Polar Bears that choose to stay and just ski around the field at Old 131 & P.

Thanks for your flexibility, the weather will be better on Wednesday.

To The Reserve!

We'll have practice on Thursday this week, at KVR, along with their skiers.  Meet at the Visitor Center at 4:00pm.  There are bathrooms at the VC if anyone needs to change.

Carpooling should be an option.  I can take 2 people.  I will be leaving from Viroqua Middle School around 3:20.  Contact me if interested 485-0876.
