Craftsbury Marathon – Race/Wax Support
For all MNC racers, Coach Liam and Rick will be on hand to provide race day wax support and guidance. They are looking to secure a spot in the indoor wax space so look for them there. If not, look for the MNC tent near the start area.

Friday Fox 1/18 & 1/20 Update
An update for this week: Fri 1/20 there is a High School race scheduled for the range, there will be a lot of the top high school racers in the state racing a pursuit style race. This will be an extremely fun, exciting race to watch, however it does not provide us with the opportunity to hold our normal practice.
So, I know the MMU team would love as many spectators as possible, so plan to come to the range and check out some, awesome, fast skiing, race starts 4pm! MMU coach Eric Barker also has some volunteer positions still available, if anyone would like to help out on that front as well. There will be a volunteer meeting at 3pm in the timing building and here is a link to sign up for available positions:
SOOOO, we would like to offer a bonus day up at the range tomorrow (1/18) to get some good skiing in. The trails should be in great shape in preparation for the big race Fri. Lets plan to meet at 3:40 down by the building. You can either ski the trail down and around or walk down the walk way.
Please remember the 25mph speed limit within range property, no walking on the snow covered trails, bring a water bottle, there is no drinkable water at the range, and we need to be off premise at 5pm, practice will conclude at 4:45.
Range Skiing Saturday 12/17
Just a reminder, this Saturday we will have our first Saturday Range access of the season for all MNC skiers enrolled in one of our BKL 3-Day, Junior and Masters Training or Range Access programs. The time slot is 10AM-Noon with Coach Christa on hand to provide oversight and tips to those who ask.
If you haven’t signed up there is still time to do so at Join MNC.
Friday Foxes 12/16 – Canceled
We have checked the latest forecast for tomorrow. A predicted high of 9 degrees with a bit of a wind chill on top of that makes for a very uncomfortable and potentially dangerous situation for the kids. In the interest of staving off frostbite, frozen lungs and freezing cold toes we have decided to cancel Friday Foxes tomorrow.
Sorry for any inconveniece or disappointment, but the snow at the range is fantastic and the groomed trails will be great for next time.
