Hi Skiers,

Reminder that the club's Annual General Meeting will be held this Wednesday evening (Sept.28) at 7 pm in the Curling Club lounge.  Come out and see what's been going on and elect your club executive for the upcoming season.

Get your season pass for the best trails and skiing around.  The best way to get yours is to go to the club's website and follow the links to easy online registration and payment.

Jackrabbit program registration will be on Saturday, October 1 beginning at 10:00 a.m. in the Wax Room at Mt Mac.

On the same day, from 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. there will be a clinic to provide Jackrabbit parents with information they will need for buying or renting ski equipment, for starting a wax kit and outfitting their children for a winter of fun!

The seminar, sponsored by The Ski Base, will be in the Wax Room downstairs at the Mt Mac Rec Centre.  Call The Ski Base for details.  The seminar will cover these topics:  how to buy equipment for your Jackrabbit - whether at the ski swap or sport stores, how the season rental program works, clothing requirements, waxing, and how to sign up for extra lessons with the SnowFun program.

For more information call the Program Manager, Sarah Murray at 668-4477 or e-mail her at programs@xcskiwhitehorse.ca

One of the main fundraisers for the ski club is the annual ski swap and winter fair which is on the morning of Saturday, October 15.  Start pulling your used but good quality nordic and downhill skis, boots, poles, snowboards, and other outdoor gear together.

It takes many volunteers to make this event happen.  If you'd like to help out either before, during, or after the event, please call (668-4477) or email the Club office.

Do you want to ski the Mt Mac trails but you're not ready to buy a season pass?  Then go to the website to learn more about our  'Try Our Trails' day pass booklets. 

Replacing the old Christmas Booklets, the 'Try Our Trails' booklets will be offered throughout the season and will be available as of October 15. 

The Wax Room and The Ski Base will be open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Saturdays 12:00 noon to 4:00 p.m.  The changerooms and saunas are open during these times as well. 

Memberships may be purchased and lockers renewed.  Sign up for season rentals and check the early season specials.
