Please note that the clubhouse will be open for the remainder of this week but staff will not be present on Thursday, and Friday, the 11th and 12th.  Trails remain open.  The staff will be back in on Saturday 13th.

The club's executive will reassess the conditions over the weekend and update the clubs plans with respect to staffing.

This annual event raises money to assist physically challenged kids in North Bay and area. If you are not familiar with this program, every cent raised stays in the area and helps provide these childrent and their families with the resources to make their lives as normall as possible ... things like the purchase of specialized sports equipment or a wheelchair ... or the construction of an access ramp. It is the mission of the Rotary Club of North Bay to see that no child is disadvantaged when all it takes is a little effort to provide a better lifestyle.

Pick any day between Saturday March 6th and Sunday March 14th, set a Personal Distance Goal goal and go for it!  Register at the snack bar for $3 and immortalize your name on a  plaque to be displayed in the Clubhouse.

Can you believe the ski season is already winding down?  This is my fourth year as a member of the North Bay Nordic Jr Ski Team.  Our team competed this year at the Ontario Cup races in Thunder Bay, Ottawa, Onaping, and the Winter Games in Huntsville, as well as OFSAA, and the Midget championships this past weekend in Midland.  As I look back on the 2010 ski season I remember everything from two athlete injuries at the Easterns to Nadine Perron’s  gold medal sprint in Onaping, and to my OFSAA gold. It has been a busy and rewarding season, and the North Bay team brought home many medals. Four of our ten athletes have just been named to the Ontario Development Team.  This team is made up of the top 44 racers age 14 and over in Ontario. This is quite an accomplishment for such a small team. Our midgets are also some of the best in the province, and represented the North Bay club on the podium at every race.

Thanks to all the skiers and volunteers who participated and persevered the warm weather and soft snow. We hope you enjoyed the event and look forward to seeing you next year.  The race results are posted here at the bottom of the Blue Sky Loppet page.

Another annual favorite, children are invited to ski the Nordic trails in search of a flag that will earn them a rich handmade Easter Egg. There are only a limited number of eggs to be found so sign up early. All are encouraged to come out, ski the beautiful March skiing conditions and enjoy the wonderful atmosphere!

Join the "Fun" and have an "Eggcellent" time!
