Happy New Year Everyone!
Everyone seemed to have LOTS of fun at our Holiday Gift Exchange. I think you all learned a lot about how this game is played and how to manage your expectations until the very end. That's good practice for so many other situations you'll face both on and off the ski trail!
The good news is that there is snow in the extended forecast, but it looks like we'll have one more week before we're back on snow.
We remain hopeful that our first race of the year will be "The Sounder" at Georgian Nordic on Sunday January 14th.
As we've said before, the coaches will do our best to keep the practices fun and challenging, so all you need to do is show up!
Tuesday - Strength Training on Zoom
Please join us between 5:20PM and 5:25PM so that we can start at 5:30PM.

BEFORE you start the workout, please make sure of the following:
- Make sure you have a safe place to perform basic bodyweight exercises
- Look for an open area 6ft x 8ft on a soft floor (e.g. carpet or mats) that isn't slippery
- Make sure you work with your parents to test your computer set-up so you can see and be seen, as well as hear and be heard
- Make sure you have proper athletic clothing and a water bottle
DURING the workout, please have a strong commitment to:
- Listen to ALL the instructions
- Try to do ALL the exercises with excellent form
- Put forth a consistent effort throughout the ENTIRE workout
PARENTS - YOU are encouraged to join in as ALL of these exercises will help YOUR skiing too!
Please be sure you review some of the exercises we will be doing HERE beforehand.
We WILL get into set #4 this week.
Saturday – Fun Somewhere!
We're working on some different options for practice this weekend assuming that we don't see enough snow for HSB to reopen.
It will be something in the Barrie area and we'll look to make a final call on Thursday night as to what our plans will be for Saturday.
