Summer is officially over and we start thinking about xc ski season!

If you would like to be a coach or to assist with coaching this winter, or know anyone who would be interested please let Delores know asap. dfflos@hotmail.com

There is a coaching course (Level 1) in Whistler in November. Spud Valley Nordics covers the cost of this course for all those who volunteer to coach in our Jackrabbit program.

The children of Pemberton benefit in many ways from being in the Jackrabbit program. The number of children in the program is determined by the number of coaches. We look forward hearing from YOU!

NO JACKRABBIT SESSION TOMORROW due to lack of snow at the Nairn Campground.

Next Monday, March 7th we will hold our final session – a fun session with a hotdog roast and games at Blacktail Meadows.
More details later next week.
