2020 Fall work day and annual meeting

On Sunday September 27, 2020 we will start our annual work day on the multi-use trail at After Hours trails at 12:30.  The work on the trails will continue till about 4 PM  and then we will have our annual meeting beginning about 4:30 on the front porch at the warming house.   Snacks will be served  and bring something to share if you like. We will choose our board members at the annual meeting and discuss our agenda which will include election of officers, improvements to the trail system for skiing and mountain biking and how to deal with the Covid-19 issues surrounding our annual River View Loppet.

More improvements to the new warming house

We are still in the process of finishing the work on the new warming house. We are working again with ‘Tiger Industries from Northwestern High School.  We are adding cabinetry to the ‘ski club corner’  for snacks and items used by skiers. We’re also having a sign made to let everyone know that we are here to help.  We will also be adding benches to the changing rooms. We expect to see these items in place soon.

The Brule Valley Ski club is paying for these projects with the generous support offered by our club membership. Please come and join us.

Grand Opening-New Warming house and Classic Trail Dedication

On February 11, 2017 between 5 and 9 PM we will be holding our annual candlelight ski, but at the same time we will be opening our new warming house for the first time for skiers. So, there is plenty of reason to come out and enjoy the bon fire, candlelit trails, a BBQ and the new warming house. The event is free and open to the public with about 5 K of ski trail and a portion of the snow shoe trail lit by candles.

At this event, we will also dedicate our classic ski trail to one or our founding members, Sally Runge. The dedication for her contributions and those of her family will be at 7PM at the new warming house. Conditions for skiing should be excellent for both skate and classic skiing.

2015 Annual Meeting and club work day

On October 3, 2015 at noon, the ski club will gather to clear the ski trail of fallen trees, brush and rocks that have pushed up since last season. At 4 PM, we will meet at the Ski Hut to choose officers and discuss projects for the coming season. Anyone interested in improving the ski trail and helping to pick out this years projects should be there this coming Saturday. We typically provide refreshments and have a good time renewing the trails and starting off the ski season.

Ski Club Work Day October 3, 2015 at 12:00pm!

HI everyone; Its time to get ready. We are planning to have our ski club work day on the After Hours trail on Saturday, October 3, 2015 beginning at noon. We will follow the activities on the trail with our annual meeting at 4 PM.
At the annual meeting we decide on trail projects, elect officers and set our event schedule. We need your advice and participation. Please join us for the afternoon.

Trails are open!

Along with the sun today and way more than a foot of snow, we have a groomed ski trail.  So, spread the news and come on out to enjoy some great skiing.

It snowed for four days straight, so the grooming crew deserves lots of credit getting things in shape. Expect it to be a little soft at first with all of the powder, but this is one of our earlier starts to what could be a great season.

Our newsletter is about ready for the printer, so you will also see that in a few days. See you out on the trail.

Workday and Annual Meeting 2014

Hi Everyone: Its time for us to prepare our ski trail for our winter passion. On October 11 at 10:30 AM we will all gather to work on the trail. We move fallen trees, cut brush along the edges and look for and pick stones off of the trails that have pushed up or fallen on the trail during the summer season.

We need your help not only on the trail, but we also need a new club secretary as I need help with correspondence. We also need input from everyone with regard to club programs. Come to the annual meeting at 2:30 PM. We will finish by 4:30 PM.
See you there and bring some tools for clearing the trail.
