Free XC Ski Lessons at Elver Park on Mar 06, 2007
Join us at Elver Park in Madison for free XC ski lessons at 6:30 PM! Gather at the shelter. If you are interested in group cross-country ski lessons, please reply to jim.vandenbrook@datcp.state.wi.us and let Jimmy know your preferred technique - classic or skate and your approximate skiing ability - beginner or intermediate. If you need to rent skis, REI has both classic and skate skis for rent.
Just a friendly reminder that you do need to have a ski trail pass. The trail pass is $5 daily or $20 yearly and can be bought from the attendant in the shelter, any trail head and online http://www.cityofmadison.com/parks/winterACt4.html. This trail pass is for Madison and Dane County skiing at the following parks: Elver, Odana, Cam-Rock, Indian Lake, Lake Farm, Stewart Park and Token Creek. The funds from the pass make it possible to keep the trails groomed, the lights on and the property maintained.
