Things are looking brighter! (and by brighter I mean frigid cold temps, chance of snow and RACING on the calendar) Check out all the great news about the next couple weeks of January NYSSRA racing….

1) January 10th – HURT Mega Relay at Garnet Hill is ON! The base has survived….a few inches of snow have freshened things a little and the 6 hour team relay event has some great prize packs (craft brews, VT maple treats, baked goods!). Grab some friends and register before Friday. https://www.skireg.com/2015-hurt-mega-relay

2)January 11th – ROCHESTER JNQ is ON at Bristol Mountain.  This is an JNQ for junior skiers  and an Open/Masters NYSSRA points series race.  The race is a 5K for U16 and a 10K for U18 and up.  Register before Saturday and come out and enjoy the fun, fast course atop Bristol Mountain! https://www.skireg.com/rochester-jnq–high-school-invitational

**Additional JNQ update – The Polar Bear Ski club will reschedule one of their cancelled JNQ races to Feb. 1st in Old Forge. This will also be the rescheduled Wilkinson Cup Series Race that was previously cancelled.   A skireg link will be provided for this new date very soon.

3)January 17th – Glens Falls Freestyle will take place at the improved Cole’s Woods Trail System.  Through the continuing support of NYSSRA members and the greater Glens Falls community, work continues to create a top-notch regional ski trail system in Glens Falls.  New improvements have already begun and you won’t want to miss this race that shows off the improvement!  Register here: https://www.skireg.com/glens-falls-freestyle
