Telemark Day Camp 1 Saturday September 25th 2021 You will not want to miss it!

Our 13th Annual Telemark Roller Ski Triathlon was another huge success. The water was lower than normal this year but the energy was high. Congratulations to all the participants. It is good to push yourselves outside of your comfort zones from time to time.

We had some great results including personal best performances last Thursday at the Glenrosa Road Time Trial! Keep up the great work!

A big Thanks to Everyone who contributed to the Regional Camp last weekend. Thank you to Teck, hopefully I will have some camp shirts to distribute soon. The camp was a huge success. We had 65 skiers who represented all of the clubs in the Interior ski region.
