Thanks to everyone for coming out, skiing & volunteering for our Sweetheart Sprints last Friday night. Special thanks to Nancy Davis for making all those lovely hearts which we hung in the trees! They looked great! Check out the photos on the BKL Blog!
NWVT BKL Mini-Festival 3/06: There is still time to register for this and it is open to all our BKL members. I think it’s going to be a lot of fun! There are races in the morning and a self-guided mini-marathon to do in the afternoon, which parents can do with their kids. If it were a normal year, many of us would be traveling to the New England Festival which would have been held in Waterville, ME (the Festival is in a different northern New England state every year). Because of COVID, most of the BKL clubs in New England are having smaller mini- festivals. Our NWVT Festival for the four clubs in our district is at Sleepy Hollow in Huntington on Saturday, March 6. This is a great opportunity to check out the scene. There is a mini-marathon only option and a non-competitive, “try it out” race in addition to the age group races. Deadline for registration is this Wednesday (3/03) at 5 PM. If you have any questions, feel free to email Coach Rosemary: sheacobb19@gmail.com. Registration link HERE.
Reminder: Our last practice this year will be March 16. We’ll do something special and have a little awards ceremony.
Tuesday Practice 3/02: Classic for Everyone
Weather: Cold temps return with a high of 17 today! 2-4″ of snow are forecasted to fall on Monday.
Wax: Clean the warm wax off your skis! We will hold off applying wax until practice because depending on how much snow we get, we might need a little klister or binder. Bring cold waxes and klisters if you have them.
Thursday Practice 3/04: Skate
Get ready for some fun, It’s Bolton Scavenger Hunt Day!
Weather: A little more moderate, might get up to 20F today.
Racers & NWVT Mini-Festival Participants:
Saturday, March 6. Costumes & glitter encouraged! We will have our MNC Tent set up in Molly’s Meadow so that kids can use it as their base. Weather looks good for the day! Coach Rosemary & some of the other coaches will be present to help kids warm up and get to the start. We will also have our wax bench, structure kit & some wax ready in case there is anything we need to do to your child’s skis to make them fast!
Wax Recommendation: Will be posted here on Thursday night (I hope). The race is Skate.
Meeting Times: Plan to arrive about an hour before your age group start time. Pick up your bib and goody bag, and come check in with the coaches at our tent which will be up in Molly’s Meadow.
