    Hello Team,

    Red Deer AB Cup Cancelled- Updated team training below

    Looking to next week with the World Cup, we will have amazing opportunity for seeing the best racers in the world racing on our home courses!  More details to come, but there will be volunteer opportunities for U16/U18 to be ambassadors on race days, forerunners (selection invitations coming soon from Nordiq Alberta for those who applied), and all Canmore Nordic U16/U18 will have the opportunity to participate in the Dress Rehearsal to get all the media and timing dialed in for the races.  This is a super neat opportunity for you to ski the world cup trails, get on camera, and will get your own copy of the dress rehearsal race typically complete with live timing, splits, headings, and of course World Cup style footage of you skiing!  We will meet Thursday, Feb 8th at 1:45 in the XC Stadium.  Please sign up on this sheet by Thursday (Feb 1) so I can confirm with the FIS Media team that we will have enough athletes out to ski.
