It was a very successful week one  for the Ski Challenge with many skiers doing this string of trails for their first time.

 

14 people did send in entries and skied  a combined 87 Km of trails . The  goal was to ski 46km which was the distance to Cranberry Portage and they did make their goal.

 

With such a successful week one ,  they had  two draws.

 

Draw 1 winner is Kara Plamondon  

who wins  a $20 gift certificate from The Candy Bar

 

Draw 2 winner is for the under 15 category, is Lucy Dumenko 

wins  $20 gift certificate from The Chicken Chef.

 

You can pick your prizes up at the Ski Club Chalet on Monday and Tuesday 4pm-5pm

and Saturday 1pm-4pm from Dennis.

 

The new map for the challenge for Week 2 is  posted on the Flin Flon Ski Club Facebook page.

 

So just a few reminders for this weeks challenge

 

You do not need to send in your trail tracks to enter but you just need to send in how many times you completed the route. Also,  if you can send in the total number of Km's you skied for the week as a whole. So add the number of Km you did with the challenge together with other trails you have skied.

 

Another category they  want to add to the challenge is for first time skiers that submit they went on any trail for the first time they will get an entry in the draw. A friend can enter their name for them. The ski club has rentals and call Dennis at 204-271-4522

 

If people can wait till the end of week to send their weeks summary to cut down on the number of emails sent. They also can include a friend's summary with their report.

 

Please send all entries or questions to koopgeo@gmail.com 

 

The  mileage goal this week is to ski from Cranberry Portage to The Pas which is 92 Km
