DXC will be holding the Wednesday Night Race Series this season for 2022-23! 

​

Who:

Racing is open to all ages and abilities! DXC encourages anyone and everyone to participate. Whether you’re a seasoned racer or someone who is just learning how to ski, come out and have some fun on Wednesday nights.

​

Cost: FREE!

​

What:

Race distance varies week to week. Usually 4k to 6k distance. Race technique will vary between Classic and Freestyle from week to week, depending on snow conditions and weather.

​

When:

Wednesday nights, 6:30PM; Racing will begin on Wednesday, December 28, and will continue each Wednesday until February 22, 2023, dependent on snow conditions. Later Wednesdays in March may be used as “make-up” days for races canceled due to snow conditions, cold weather, etc.

​

Where:

Races venues will rotate between Spirit Mountain Nordic Center, Snowflake Nordic Center, Upper Spirit Campground Loop, Lester Park, and Cloquet/Pine Valley. The first race of the year will take place at Snowflake on 12/28 in Freestyle technique.

​

What you need:

- A Trail Pass for the race trail, if one is required. 

- A completed Wednesday Night Race Series registration (this gets you into the whole series with one signed waiver; race once or every time with just one registration)

- A headlamp. Upper parts of Spirit Mountain Nordic Center and between lights at other trails might make a headlamp useful.

​

Points System:

All skiers will receive points for their position in each race. At the end of the season, the top man and woman, and most consistent man and woman will receive a prize. 

 

We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday nights!
