Welcome to the Battle Creek Youth Ski Club!

2008 is the second year for the Battle Creek Youth Ski Club. Last year we met on Wednesday evenings. This year we are changing the meetings to Saturday mornings. More sunshine and less traffic!

Schedule and location

Our first meeting will be Saturday, January 5th, 2008 at 9:30 am. We will meet every Saturday in January and February (there are eight meetings) from 9:30 to 11:30 am. We will meet at the Battle Creek Recreation Center off of Winthrop Avenue in the warming room, just off of the ice rinks.

Weather and cancellation policy

We will not ski if the air temperature is below -10˚ F, or the windchill is below -30˚ F. Cancellations will be posted on this Web page. Call Amy at (612) 724-4071 if conditions are questionable and no announcement is made yet.

Equipment

Thnanks to a generous grant from REI, we have some great new equipment for skiers to use for a nominal fee - $20 for the entire season. This equipment can be taken home and used for family outings.

Volunteering

WE NEED YOU! As a new club, we need coaches, snack coordinators, bib coordinators, and any other help you can offer. Got a brilliant new idea about how to help kids learn to ski? Now's your chance to make it happen.
