Windup Planned for April 8th

Looks like we could have done with a snow dance or two. It is so close to almost ski-able, but alas, it isn't going to happen. The season is officially over. (most people probably knew that 2 weeks ago, but we always hold out hope).

 Usually we get to wind up the season on snow. They year we aren't going to get that chance. Instead we will have a windup party on April 8th at the Community Centre. If it is nice, we'll be outside, if not, we'll play inside. Games and snacks and fun. We'll send out a reminder closer to the date.

Regardless of whether or not you're able to join us then, we'd love your feedback on the season - what worked, what we could change or work on, and what you would like to see next year. Shoot us an email or chat with us at the windup. Hope to see you on the 8th!

March 18 - Canceled and plans for a wrapup

Have you seen the outside?! This, Jackrabbit families, is not skiing weather. Coach Ted swung by the community club earlier today, and if last week was Neptune, this week is Pluto. It is just too icy. So skiing is canceled for Saturday. And we are likely done for the season.

 We'd like to give the kids a chance to get together one more time to wrap up the year. So we are planning a wrap-up in a week or two. We'll plan some games, have some treats and generally have some fun. If we can do outdoors we will, if we can't we'll be in the community club. We'll send more details in a few days.

 Stay Tuned!

March 11 Session Canceled

Windsor Park Nordic Centre has closed for the season. That is never a good sign. Coach James did a tour of the Wildwood trails last night and reported that it is like skiing on a frozen lake with a skiff of snow. So basically bad. 

We are getting close to the end of the season folks. Stay tuned. But this Saturday's session is canceled. 

Congratulations!

Congratulations to our Wildwood Jackrabbits who raced at tonight Dash For Cash at Windsor Park Nordic Centre. Great effort everyone!
 

Saturday February 25

The tack and grid are icy, but it is certainly ski-able. Games and relays will be the order of the day. See you Saturday!

Saturday February 11 - Cookie Party

Looks like Saturday is going to be a great day for skiing. We had to cancel our Christmas cookie party because it was too cols, so we are having a Valentine's Cookie party (any excuse for a cookie party!) Tim Hortons is supplying the hot chocolate, we are asking all the families to bring some cookies (or something similar) to share. Along with regular skiing stuff we are planning e a stuffie scavenger hunt! It should be a pretty exciting day!

Saturday Feb 3

Looks like it will be a great day for a ski. Temperature should be about -11 by ski time with a windchill of -16. We may even have some snow falling!

Our focus for this Saturday will depend somewhat on the shape of the hill and the grid. Regardless, we'll generally do what we generally do! That is: warm up, play some games, do some work on our skills, and likely go for a ski, then play on the hill.

Just a reminder for all the budding artist out there. Get your jackrabbit touque designs in for next years toque!
