We had a great time at the Tomasi Meadow Trot on Sunday afternoon!
This was a fundraiser for the ski trails that exist in this meadow during winter.
MNC is taking a new part in this community ski opportunity alongside the Town of Underhill: our snowmobile and grooming equipment is now stored adjacent to the trails, and MNC volunteers (primarily Peter Davis, who has been instrumental in this project, including grooming last year with an older machine) will help keep the trails in shape for free skiing when the snow falls.
Soon you’ll be able to donate to the trails from the MNC website. Donations under this Tomasi Meadow umbrella will go toward things like fuel, snowmachine maintenance, and grooming equipment upgrades.
With over 50 participants between the 1.5km kids race and 5km open race, there was a festive atmosphere. As usual, Mt Mansfield and the rolling hills of the meadow made for a beautiful backdrop.
You can check out lots of photos on our Flickr Album from the event here:
The main race is off!
Headed onto the trail with Mt Mansfield in the background. Strollers were well-represented!
Many familiar MNC faces at the event. Rosemary, Ansel, and Niko!
Awaiting prizes at the raffle!
A shark-wrangler (Coach Emily) had to keep a big shark (Coach Adam) away from the crowd of humans!
Not long after that, Coach Emily had to track down an errant cow (Hanna Holm) that wandered into the middle of the course!
