We had a great day of skiing yesterday. Groomer Henry Ginzu groomed away the oak leaves, set new tracks and made the skating lanes magic carpets! He will start all over again early this morning. Our thanks to all the participants, volunteers, staff and organizers for helping to host of one the best Michigan Cup Relays ever!

Even though it is forecast to get into the low 40s today the snow pack is in great shape and skiing will be excellent for both skating and striding throughout the day. .
