A couple of things......

GROOMERS

We are looking for volunteer groomers to help with the grooming this year.  Snowmobile experience is not a necessity, but would be an asset.  Training will be provided.  Contact Sean Seabourne at 250-398-9588 if you can help us out.

REGISTRATION

I have emailed out registration forms to previous members.  Adult fees have gone up $10 to $110, but you can avoid the increase by registering on or before our Open House on November 19^th!  You can mail in your completed forms or bring them in to the Open House.  Also, online registration is available through Zone 4 – go to http://www.zone4.ca/ and search for the Williams Lake Cross Country Ski Club.  

EARLY REGISTRATION PRIZES

Cross Country BC has introduced a membership drive with amazing prizes for the club with the highest % of registered members by midnight on December 1^st.  (Based on last year’s registration totals.) Should we be a winning club, we will pass the prizes directly on to our members!  The link below outlines the contest.

Register early so we have a chance to win!!

OCTOBER 23 – WORK BEE AT BULL MOUNTAIN 10am-2pm

• Where: Meet in the parking lot.
• Be sure to have work gloves and appropriate footwear.  The trails can be muddy.
• Specialty/Power Equipment: If you own an ATV, we would appreciate it if you brought it; the trails are soft so we ask that people walk or ride an ATV. Vehicles (other than ATV’s) will not be allowed on the trails. We need people with chain-saws and brush saws for removing brush growing up on the trails. A weed whacker is probably too light. Please note if you are bringing a chain-saw or any power equipment our safety plan obliges volunteers to wear personal protective gear (a hard hat with ear and eye protection, gloves and work boots) and faller’s pants if you are running a chain-saw.

JACKRABBITS

A reminder that online registration is NOT available for Jackrabbits and that club membership is included in the Jackrabbit fees.  There will be an information table at the Open House, and Rob will be emailing out registration forms to all of last year’s participants.
