UPDATE - 11/13/2019 @ 13:12 - There will be options for both skate skiing (on thin snow atop grass - best to have rock skis) and an easy pole run on Elver's ski trail system.

Let's try to ski. We will try to do some skating drills on the open soccer field or other areas where there is snow on top of grass.

BRING: Skate boots, skate poles, skate skis.
Classic poles, running shoes (you can keep these in my car in case skiing is not good)

PLAN: Attempt to have fun on skis. (Arrival Time: 5:25 PM (CST))

Location: Elver Park
UPDATE 11/13/2019 @ 21:18 - Bring running shoes as well as all skate and classic gear. We will try to get everyone on skis if there is that option.
Sorry for all the notices but we are working with a big unknown with the weather and potential snowmaking. It could be quite good tomorrow but nothing is certain as of yet...
Contact coach Jay or coach Brenda if you are missing anyting and we can do our best to bring extra gear tomorrow.

----

Elver park has thin but skiable snow so we should take advantage. Returning and more experienced skiers should bring skate skis, boots and poles if you have them and we will go on a fun skate ski.

Bounding for our newer group but fear not, it looks like we will have a completed and groomed snow loop by next Monday and then the real fun begins.

BRING: hat, gloves, layers, running shoes, classic poles

Short bounding drills (skate & classic)
Games (Ghost in the graveyard? Capture the flag?) (Arrival Time: 5:25 PM (CST))
