08 Conference CC Meet

Here are some of the skiers in their last CC race of the season. Bring on the Snow!!

Informational Meeting for Skiers

Coach Sedler and Coach Anderson will hold a short informational meeting for all current and new Nordic Skiers on Oct. 22nd at 2:45 pm. The meeting will be in coach Sedler's room, WA 220.

Trivia: The first hints to the existence of skis are on 4500 to 5000 year old rock drawings, e.g. at Rødøy in Norway which depict a man on skis holding a stick

More Trivia: Moving the l in Coach Sedler's name would change her name to Coach Sleder. A very good name for winter sports.

Remember the Snow?

I'm looking forward to a great year with more new skiers.
