Heads up the North American Championships held by Heads up the North American Championships held by @steepdreams and @kickinghorsemtn  are getting close and so is their registration limit! 

“We are 2 weeks away from Steep Dreams, and we are approaching our registration limits!
For those that have registered, this is great news. The numbers this year have allowed us to put together what should be a really great event with lots of support.
For those that haven't registered - we recommend doing so. Based on the average registrations per day, we will hit our limits before the race weekend. This is not your typical Canadian "register on the drive there" race!”

What’s better than the Olympics? Personally, I t What’s better than the Olympics? Personally, I think a World Championship is most enjoyable because of the closeness to the competition afforded to spectators. I love ringing the cowbell alongside the booters and moving across the Teams and Individual course to see racers pass by multiple times.

Watching Jesse Diggins win Silver in the Women's Cross-Country 30km last week (doesn’t she work hard!) motivates me to help our athletes attain a similar level of performance for the Winter Games, as well as all other world-level races.

USA Skimo has a strategy to help our athletes attain higher World Cup performances and develop a team that can win medals at the 2026 Winter Games. First, we’re bringing the World Cup to the US. This weekend’s Vail race is a rehearsal for a 2023 World Cup. We plan to provide two venues in sequential weekends and are evaluating candidate venues. Second, we’re developing an athlete support program to help our athletes focus on the sport and on winning.
 
I want to thank all of those who donated during our December and Winter Games fundraising campaigns. If you haven’t “joined the team” to help your teammates, please donate today to support the work ahead. Let’s get to work.”

From our very own, Kerry Hanes—Fundraising Chair and Master Ski Technician.
