This year we will access the Park and the Ski Chalet from the Main Park Entrance.   We will put up our club sign near the park sign at the main entrance so you won’t miss it.  This entrance is closer to the turn off of HWY 144.  The drive in the park to the parking lot will be a little longer.

With this entrance change, we had to modify the start and finish of our park trail and our access to cross the road.  The changes were completed at the request of the park management.

The "Feel the Rush 2008," a Canadian Paralympic Committee (CPC) campaign celebrating winter and summer Paralympic sports has been launched. Their goal is to increase the number of Canadians with a disability who "feel the rush" of confidence and empowerment that comes with enjoying sport on a daily basis, some of whom will continue on to become high performance athletes and support Canada retaining its top medal winning position at future Paralympic Games.

Soo Finnish Nordic announces a change to the race distances for the Hiawatha Invitational. Midget boys and Midget girls will race 4KM, not 5KM as previously indicated. The 4KM distance applies to both the skate and freestyle events. Midget and Mini-midget racers from NOD are reminded that this is the qualifying event for participation in the Ontario Winter Games in March. One Juvenile boy and one Juvenile girl will also qualify for the Ontario Winter Games by winning at Hiawatha on January 26-27.

Sudbury's Devon Kershaw turned in the best distance World Cup result of his career in the a 30km skate over the weekend in Rybinsk, Russia. Even more impressive was the fact that Kershaw was less than 6 seconds behind the winner in what was a mad scramble to the finish.
