Updated Info On Our First Race at Trollhaugen Dec. 13th 6PM (optional for 6th grade skiers)


The fun begins at Trollhaugen this week. We will leave shortly after school and return home about 9pm. We'll have kids call from the bus as we approach school. Attendance at this meet is optional for 6th grade skiers. 6th graders can't officially compete in races, but they can race parallel to JV skiers.

Boys Varsity - 6 pm (Mass start OR waves of 1 per school every minute) - ~5km
Girls Varsity - 6:30 (Mass start OR waves of 1 per school every minute) - ~5km
Boys JV - 7:00 Mass Start - ~2.5 km
Girls JV - 7:05 Mass Start - ~2.5 km

All skiers should have the following:
  • warm clothes appropriate for the weather to ski in with additional layers available for watching teammates race.
  • a healthy pre-race meal and snack after skiing.
  • homework for down times
  • proper mindset, for varsity skiers this is a full on race go, go, go. JV skiers should ski fast and improve your fitness and skills. New skiers relax there will be skiers from other teams just like you. learn to get up hills, turn and have fun.
