Congratulations to all those kids that raced this weekend in our MNC Skiathlon! It was awesome watching you all ski! Check out the BKL Blog for a recap and pictures coming soon!
Klister: It’s time to take it off!
We’ll be switching back to hardwax by the next time we classic which will be on Thursday. Here’s a tutorial on how to clean the klister off skis:https://youtu.be/DicChDocWWY
Tuesday: Skate (Penguins: Classic)
A big snow storm is supposed to start late this afternoon and continue into Wednesday. Check the weather before you come to determine if you will be OK driving to & from your home and of course, check the MNC website. At this point, the storm isn’t supposed to really get going until later in the evening so I don’t foresee that we will need to cancel.
VIDEO DAY: Vince Franke is a videographer form Peregrine Productions and has kids in our program. He has volunteered to make a Video of our BKL program for me and is going to be videoing our BKL skiers and probably interviewing some of them. We plan to post this video on our website. If any parent would like us NOT to film their child and post it online, please email Rosemary: sheacobb19@gmail.com
We’ll be playing lots of games, practicing tucking on the downhills and racers will be practicing how to pass skiers.
Coming up: Tuesday 2/19- Our Annual Mini-Marathon! We will need everyone to bring snacks (to share) and a couple of parent volunteers to man the food table and lap counting sheets. E-mail Rosemary if you can help that day: sheacobb19@gmail.com More about the Mini-marathon next week!
Thursday: Classic Relay Day!
With a high of 31F predicted, we will probably be waxing with Swix purple or a mix of Toko Red & yellow.
Sunday: Racers: Ski/Cheer Intervals at Rikert
Middle school racers have a championship race on Saturday, so we’re going to have practice on Sunday down at the Rikert Touring Center where the Eastern Cup races are happening and I will be helping Adam wax for the Juniors. Tentative plan is to meet at 12:00 and watch the start of the Open Men’s 15 km race, then ski out to watch and & cheer and go for a ski. I will email later in the week to confirm plans.
