Third Week Of Practice
Posted by Dave Johnson on November 28th 2007 in practice, Team Communication
With the combined help of Mother Nature and Marshall Nordic skiers with shovels we are proud to announce the opening of our 250 meter classic single track course on the Marshall School football practice field. This means that we can now classic ski at practice! Our plan for the rest of the week is to have a group classic skiing/double polling on the classic course, a group waxing in the trailer and a group ski walking. Please come prepared to do any of the three options. Also we have noticed several skiers coming to practice without proper outdoor dress. 
Please refer to this picture of a perfectly dressed Marshall Nordic Skier. Notice the hat on his head keeping his ears warm. Look at the gloves on his hands keeping them warm and safe from injury. Notice as well his jacket fully zipped up to keep out the elements and keep his core warm. You will just have to take my word that he has on proper running shoes as well!
Weekend Plans
Word has it that the Grand Marais area received about 9 inches of snow. Look here for information about conditions on the Onion River Road. The ORR might be a great place for you to head to on Saturday or Sunday for that longer ski! Willing to drive further? Check out this webcam from the Kamview ski trails in Thunder Bay.
See you at practice!

Dave,
Thank you for all you do with the kids. Great website.
Can you give me info on how to get Joseph a bag?
Can you let me know how he is doing?
Thanks,
Colette

Hi Colette:
I will work with our ski bag supplier to bring some bags in. They cost about $25 and are made of recycled billboards. And about Joseph, I think he is doing great!
