Saturday Practice Canceled. Week 8 Race Volunteers Needed-- Sign Up Links. Friday morning practice 7:45-11:15am.

Good Afternoon:

First, Practice on Saturday, January 1 is CANCELED.  
I'm not afraid of the cold, but I want you to take two days off before we begin the second half of our season, which opens with three races next week. Rest up. Let you legs recover. Get a lot of sleep and eat healthy. You have been working incredibly hard. Many of you have been attending both sessions each day this week. You have improved. So, rest and recover. And tune your skis for Monday.

Second, Race Volunteer Sign Up
We have three races scheduled next week. We need to fill race volunteer positions for the two races at Hyland on Monday, January 3 and Friday, January 7. Please sign up if you are available to assist.

I will be working on run orders for each race tomorrow afternoon. I will also be setting the run order for the race at Afton on January 5. Look for another flurry of emails this weekend.  

Afton Race (January 5) and Afton Waivers
I am still waiting on Afton for information about any waivers we need parents to sign before Wednesday. Once I have the link to complete the waiver, I will send it to you. I am also waiting on more details about the Afton race from the race organizer. Sorry that I can not be more specific at this time. I am assuming a 4PM or 4:30PM start time. As information trickles in, I will update you. 

Thank you for your patience, or, pray for patience if this particular virtue has already been exhausted.   

Two practices remain: this afternoon at 5PM and tomorrow(Friday) morning at 7:45am. We will train Friday morning until 11am. Off the hill by 11:15am. We have lanes A, B and C.   

See you soon.
