A few end of the season announcements...
✔️ Coach Voss lent his classic poles to one of our skiers. If you have them, please email sidvoss@hopkinsnordic.com. Also, someone on the team has his Craft lobster mitts...would like to have them back. Thanks! ✔️ Still have your uniform? Bring it to the banquet, or ✔️ Summer Wax your skis. You should put a coat of wax on your skis at the end of the season. This will protect your bases and keep the bases from drying out. Just drip some red or yellow wax on the bottom, make a couple of passes with the iron, and that's it. Do not scrape until next winter. There is red and yellow wax in the wax room. ✔️ Please take your bags, skis, and poles home from the wax room by the end of the week. If you have rental skis in the wax room, Coach Voss will take them...don't forget to take home your poles. ✔️ If you have rental skis, you can bring them to return to Coach Voss at banquet. Otherwise, he will be in touch with you about returning them. |

Conference Champs Info
1) Make sure your both your skate and classic skis are glide waxed. Coach Voss will be in the wax room on Wednesday beginning at 1:10 if you have 4th block open. You will leave your classic skis with Coach Fuhr because coaches will be putting on the kick race in the morning before the race. 2) There will only be the Varsity race because our the amount of time we have at Wirth has been shortened. 3) Make sure you eat a big breakfast and bring something for lunch that is quick, easy, and will sit well before the race. We suggest you eat on the bus ride over to Wirth. 4) Remember that Thursday is a late-start day, so class schedules are different. West dismiss at 10:10, bus leaves West at 10:15.
