Due to Mother Nature, only U14 and older were able to race in the Yk Ski Races today, but a great time was still had by all! Click here for race results!

From a parade ski, to 100m sprints to cookie medals for all racers, everyone enjoyed themselves. 

A huge thank you to all the volunteers, without you, there would be no ski races!
