Friday Nov 16th Update: We have a record inventory for this year's swap, focusing mostly on high school racers. Skis, boots, poles, rollerskis, wax items and for the retro types, a good selection of wood skis.
This event is very popular and busy. People line up early. Most demand is for high school racing equipment. Those shopping for youth sized equipment (160 cm skis or size 36 boots and smaller) will be advanced in the line. Find a line monitor.

The Best Swap for Good Quality, Used Kids, Junior and Adult Equipment!
The Minnesota Youth Ski League is pleased to host this big event, open to the entire public. The sale is being held as a fundraiser for MYSL and provides skiers, of all sizes and ages, the opportunity to sell outgrown and little used equipment and clothing. We request that sellers limit merchandise to items that are directly related to cross country skiing. No three-pin bindings, downhill gear or bicycles, please! 20% of the sale price, or a minimum of $1 per item, will be retained by MYSL.
The following merchandise is considered appropriate for this sale:
¥ cross-country skis, boots, bindings and poles
¥ ski related clothing
¥ roller skis and roller blades
¥ car racks
¥ waxing irons and benches and other waxing paraphernalia
Sellers: Please check-in your used equipment from 5:30-7:00 pm on Friday. If you can't make it Friday, there is a check-in period from 8-9 am on Saturday. You will receive a tag for each item. At this time you will be charged a $1 service charge per item (bring cash). We request that you price your merchandise reasonably (whole dollars only). If you are unsure of how to price a particular item, we will advise at check-in. You may pick up your money and/or any unsold equipment from 2:00 to 3:00pm on Saturday. Any money or merchandise not claimed by 3:00pm will be considered a donation to the Minnesota Youth Ski League.
If you have more than four items we ask that you preregister by downloading the spreadsheet below, filling in your info and forwarding it to Amy. You will not be charged the $1 per item fee if you pre-register. Spreadsheet deadline is Thursday midnight.
Buyers: The sale will be held from 10 am to 12:30 pm on Saturday. The sale is popular and busy, so come early for the best selection. Volunteer staff members will be available to provide assistance. Displayed prices are considered non-negotiable and all sales are final. Please come prepared with small denomination bills and several checks (no credit cards). You can expect to find some of the best bargains in town!
New: There will be a seperate line to get into the sale for those only purchasing children's equipment (classic skis shorter than 160cm). This is an attempt to make things easier for families with young kids.
