Sunday Skiing : Yes! and Jackrabbit Jamboree

Hey, it’s not cold!  Sunday Session will return to the Nature Playground, same routine as last week! 1:30 pm, Track attackers- classic technique skiing.

Jackrabbit Jamboree- highly recommended!

14 Annual Jackrabbit Jamboree Feb 6 2016 (Saturday) Windsor Park Nordic Center

The Jackrabbit Jamboree is a full day of FUN (9:45am-3pm). The day starts with a Big stretch out back of the clubhouse and participation in one of three ski orienteering courses! There are orienteering courses for Bunnies (kids new to their skis) medium distance and a long course. Everyone who participates in the orienteering gets to choose a small prize!

Following the orienteering we will have three game stations and will run three groups of skiers between each of the stations on a 20 minute rotation! The Bunny Rabbits will stay close to the club house and do a shortened Jackrabbit sessions with Biathlon Bear and Jackrabbit (Mascots).

Following the game stations we will break for lunch. Every participant receives a hotdog, chips and a drink (extra food is available during registration). During lunch there will be some draw prizes and face painting!

The races begin shortly after lunch. The younger kids will do a series of relays out on the grid. Lots of chocolate incentives fuel these “for fun” races! The older kids will be asked to cheer on the young ones!

Next up is the Mascot race where all the mascots vie for the coveted trophy! After the mascots show their stuff we will do a relay race with the older kids! The top three teams will receive medals afterwards during the afternoon snack held back in the clubhouse! There will also be some more draw prizes and the handing out of the Technique awards!

Festivities will come to a close at 3 pm. Cost is $10 and registration is available on Zone4:
