Free XC Lessons @ Elver Park on Dec 19, 2009
FREE XC ski lessons, compliments of MadNorSki, will be offered Saturday, December 19th, 1pm, at Elver Park.
Lessons last about 1 hour. We meet inside the Elver Park Shelter. While the lessons are free you will need a ski pass to ski the city and county parks. If you need ski gear, Elver Park rents classic gear ($10 first hour, $5 each additional hour) which includes a trail pass. REI also rents gear but has skate gear as well. If renting gear from Elver Park, please get to the shelter a bit early to get your stuff and a trail pass if you need one.
Check out the City Parks site for more info on trail conditions and status:
