Kandahar This Weekend!!

Dear Gore Ski Mountain Ski Club members and want-to-be members:

It’s snowing as I write this. YEAH!! FINALLY!!!

As you know this weekend is KANDAHAR!! We’re looking forward to 2 days of some great skiing, great racing, and great fun!! Maybe we'll have some powder?! If you don’t know the history of the Kandahar, it’s posted in the NYSEF training center, straight in from the entry doors on the bulletin board. It can also be found on NYSSRA’s website under the Qualifiers & Teams blue tab across the top.

Calling all bakers or wanna-be bakers -- we’re doing a fundraiser bake sale on Saturday morning. Please make/bring something yummy to sell during bib pick-up in the Training Center. Registration starts at 7:30AM, so please bring your treats over as early as possible. Whatever you bring, please package them so we can sell them each for 25 cents or 50 cents. Suggestions: Muffins, donuts, cupcakes, brownies, cookies, rice krispie treats, trail mix, muddy-buddy mix, etc… If it has nuts in it, please label it. The club will have coffee/tea/hot chocolate available in the morning to go with!!

We have a number of volunteers registered to help with all the activities. Both days we’ll have stuff for sale - bake sale items on Saturday and lunch tickets, raffle tickets, NYSSRA t-shirts, fleece hats & bandanas. Saturday afternoon we’ll be humming (dancing?) tunes, scooping ice cream, shoveling popcorn, and pouring drinks (the non-alcoholic type).

If you have any Gore Race Team logo clothing, please wear it. This will help if any visitors have questions, they’ll know who the “local” people are. Plus, it’ll show support for our team!!

We also need a few volunteers yet for the races. Please consider gate keeping on either day. You’ll get a close up view of the race! Thanks in advance!

GO GORE!!
