Volunteers needed! Help support this homegrown local race. Coach Liz is looking for a few more volunteers to help make the race run smoothly. If you want to get in some training while volunteering, try course monitor. Other volunteer jobs include parking, registration, timing or pancake flipping. There will also be a crew of kids at the water station (right next to the Cochran’s lodge). Email us if you are interested in volunteering or  Sign Up to Volunteer Here

Event Update: We’re setting up the party with food and waxing on the lower deck at Cochran’s. Dress warm, bring rock skis or a sled for some fun on the ski hill.

Wax n’ Waffles RSVP

Craftsbury has closed-up for the season, meaning our traditional end-of-season party needed to be called off. We’re sad to not have this fun event available to us, but instead we have put together another opportunity to close-out the ’23/’24 season!

Join us at Cochran’s on Sunday, April 7th for “Waffles and Waxing”

We will have a group run option in the morning, followed by a gathering in the baselodge. In a few different “waves” (though this is loose…if things are open, people can just jump in) skiers and families can use a collection of MNC benches, wax rollers, irons, cleaning tools, scrapers, and solvents to:

• Clean kick zones
• Apply summer storage wax
• Clear off debris and gunk from sidewalls
• Check bindings, poles, and skis for any broken parts

There will be waffles and hotdogs to enjoy inside or out, slideshows and videos of the ski season, and some talks from coaches. Lawn games outside if the weather is nice!

No fee for this event, but we’ll have a donation box if you’d like to consider a contribution! Hope to see you there
