Wednesday through Saturday this week

See below for what's happening the rest of the week. Please note that in Wednesday's ParentSquare questionnaire, parents will be asked to weigh in on the following:

  • Will your skier be at practice on Thursday this week?
  • Will your skier be at practice on Friday this week?
  • Does your skier want to participate in the race in Portland this Saturday, February 20?
  • If yes, will they need transportation?
Wednesday:
Confirmed Classic
race at Pineland. Teams will be Freeport, Waynflete, Greely, Brunswick, a few skiers from Falmouth and MCWS. Boys start at 11:00, girls will start 5 minutes after the last boy finishes (so probably close to 11:30). Boys should arrive to the Oak Hill parking lot by 9:00, girls arrive by 9:30. We've got the following skiers in this race:
Seamus, Conrad, Nate, Noah C, Noah K, Will
Maeve, Lydia, Leah, Nora

There will be NO spectators allowed at this race. Any parents dropping off/picking up are asked to stay in/near their cars.

Thursday:
Skate practice at Pineland - 3:00-4:30.

Friday:
Skate practice at Pineland - 3:00-4:30.

Saturday:
Skate race at Riverside Golf Course in Portland, 1:00 1:30 start. The proposed format, conditions permitting, is as follows, although subject to change based on what Thursday's storm brings.

PART 1: 3K skate race for all skiers. Boys race followed by girls.

PART 2: An XCX sprint race on Riverside's Nordic terrain park course (this is what may or may not happen - will depend on the conditions).
Top 24 Boys and Girls from their respective Part 1 will compete in heats of 4 with 2 "lucky losers" from the second heat to make numbers work.

The XCX course will have up and down hill challenges and other features. It will be less than 1K in length... final course TBD.

Sounds like fun!
