Team Scream 2016 Results!

A giant thank you to all the volunteers, skiers and spectators who made this year’s Tropical Team Scream an event to remember.  The costumes, the racing, the food, the timing, the marshalling, the parking, the Bunny Race,  the registration, the bib prep, the cookie medals, the first-aid, the awards and prizes, the poster artwork, the sound system, the photography, the grooming, the clean-up… there were over 30 volunteers and 85 racers!   High-fives all around!  And another one to the sun – that eventually burned through the clouds and turned the day truly tropical!  – Eleanor Wilson

A very big THANK YOU to Eleanor for bringing such a great event together; we all had a great time!

Photo contest for the new brochure!

What is your favourite thing about skiing at the Macpherson Ski Trails with the Revelstoke Nordic Club?  Capture it in a photo and it could end up on the front of the new brochure!  We are updating the brochure, and thought we would put it to you to find a photo that really says, “I love nordic skiing here, want to join?!”

So get out the cameras, because the GRAND PRIZE for the photo that ends up on the font is an ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP for 2016-17 (value of $150).

Submit photos to [email protected].  Include your name in the file name.

But submitting one or many photos, you are granting permission for the club to use the photo in the future on posters, in publications, the website, other social media sites, and advertising purposes.  We will credit you when the photo gets used for these purposes.
