Thursday’s BKL Practice (12/08)- Venue Change!
We will hold Thursday’s practice on skate skis at Mill River Park. The expansive fields there have adequate cover and conditions will be similar to what we found at the Range in the fields on Tuesday. Bring Skate ski equipment. There are port-a-potties at Mill River Park, but no warming hut. Temps should be around 35ish. We will meet at the gazebo.
Directions: Mill River Park is located on Rte. 15 in Jericho on the south side of the road just before the intersection of Rte. 15 and River Rd. (across from “Jolley’s” ).
UPDATE: BKL 2-day, 3-day and DEVO- Bring Rock Skis!
In addition to all the other things I asked you to bring, wear your ski boots and bring any rock skis you have- preferably skate, but classic no-wax are fine too. FYI- Rock skis are old skis that you won’t mind getting scratched up.
There is snow at the Range, but they are not able to groom it because they feel their grooming machine will go right through to the pavement. So, we’ll pack it down by skiing and we can play games on skis in the fields.
Wax clinic is still on and we will do that first.
BKL Volunteer Job Sign-up for December
We have a few jobs that we really need people to help with during practices. Please check them out and sign-up HERE.
If you signed up to help ski with your child’s group, just come and let your child’s coach know you are there to help.
Parent Wax helpers- When I know we will be classic skiing, I will try to send you all an e-mail.
