USSPC Ski Poles

If you're interested in ordering the USSPC ski poles with the Little Falls Flyer art on them:

• 10+ ordered at the same time will save $10 each set.
• We've hit that number so if you are thinking about ordering, you can save some $ by getting in on this initial order.
• If you know the size of pole you need, that will save Joe some time and also will reduce the waste when he cuts off the extra carbon.  
• Dave would like to get the order in so the poles are here the week after Thanksgiving.

Contact Dave at Touright asap if you want to add to the order or if you already ordered but need to tell him what size poles you need.

A Reminder and Some News

Reminder:  Nordic Parent Meeting is tomorrow (Thursday) at 5:30 in the High School Commons.  There may have been an announcement at the high school that incorrectly said the meeting was at 5 pm, but the correct time is 5:30.

There's a link in the right sidebar of the blog for Nordic Buy & Sell.  If you're looking for equipment for your kids, you can check there to see what's available.  I noticed that someone posted this week about boots and equipment for a younger (smaller) skier.

A little bit late, but here's some highlights from the Minnesota High School Nordic Coaches Association Fall Meeting in October:

• Gunner Kleinschmidt, who won our Section's Volunteer of the Year last February, also earned State Volunteer of the Year for last season.  Congrats!
• New pole length restrictions will be enforced this season. Classic poles can be no greater than 83% of height of the skier (100% of height for skate poles).  Measurement was defined as the athlete in shoes/boots (not on skis), with pole tip in ground and measured to top of the strap attachment.
• When Giants Ridge contract ends, possible state meet venues could be Theodore Wirth in the Twin Cities and the Grand Avenue Nordic complex at Spirit Mountain in Duluth (expected to open fall 2018).

Nordic Ski Apparel Order

Our e-store is open!  There are several items that offer the option to add a name and/or art to the back.  You'll see that option after you choose your size and click "Add to Cart".  The art on the back is the same for all items, but it's not shown for every item.  I think the only one that actually shows the art is the long sleeved t-shirt.  This is what it will look like and you can add it for most if not all shirts.

 

Here's the sell sheet with the link to the e-store at the top:

If you're interested in ordering caps or headbands that match the new uniforms, you can order directly from Podiumwear.  Link to the store is HERE.

Orders for both e-stores must be placed by Nov. 22.
