WMSC Friday Night Lights! (XC Skiing at Callaghan) | Fri, Jan 12 to Apr 12 | 5 -7pm

Every Friday evening, we will meet as a club at the Whistler Olympic Park in Callaghan for a night of Nordic. Parents can meet other members and ski and socialize. Your children can join their teammates and coaches for an evening of skate skiing, monthly Biathlon lessons, and Nordic Ski Jump lessons too!

This is a great way to break up the drive from the city, and if you are already in town; it’s a great escape from the hustle of the valley. Great food and beverages are available at the lodge if you don’t feel like cooking.

This is a great way to develop good lower joint movement and power which will have a direct impact on your Alpine skiing. It’s also just another great way to enjoy our Canadian Winters with friends.

The cost is $100 for coaching. It doesn’t include equipment rentals or passes.

We need minimum of 10 athletes per age group to run these sessions.
