Next Ski- Feb. 3
Weather for this session forecast to be -4 to -2, winds negligible at 2-3k, sky overcast with snow flurries afternoon.
Expect less parking issues this Sat. I think with no fresh powder forecast downhill skier parking will be lighter.
XC Skiing has been fantastic at SS this last while even with the heat wave and rain , trails well groomed and fast. There is some debris here and there from the trees due to the winds, Classic skiers especially try avoid the occasional pine cones in the tracks!
Leader Board
On the right is projected Leader Board for tomorrow, remember this may change, there may be a few more leaders possibly.
Google Poll
The Google Form poll we sent out has some trends I will share here, will still keep it open till we have given people a full week to respond. At the end of that week, I will close the survey and will get very specific with you all on how we plan to carry out these activities. Though the survey will be closed by no means does that mean that you are unable to join later on as long as we have room and you let me know The survey has already met its main objective and that is to let us know if we should proceed with making it happen.
Soooo about 3 days into the poll:
- Responses- 64
- Chocolate making class- 19 ( will schedule 2 classes , location Bugaboos)
- Kelowna Nordic day trip- 11 ( have asked Silver Hares Leader Jhon Davina and Lyle Nicholson, both Kelowna Nordic members) to help organize, you will hear from one or both of them.
- Swing Dance Lesson- 28 (at Chilcoot Center March 16)
- Season End Gathering- 47 (at Black Pine Social March 27)
- Adding Wednesdays additional Silver Hares ski session- 17 yes, 34 sometimes
We are also looking to add another reason to socialize and that is looking like a bingo night , more fun than you might think especially after a beverage or so.
We need your waivers!
We will have waivers with us for those needing to still fill out. Please arrive early to do so. I will be at bugaboos available to hand those out 9:15- 9:45. Still 50 people have not filled out waivers, we are going to need to call out the waiver police soon.

Here’s a note to you all from the Black Pine Social restaurant.
A Shout Out to all the Silver Hares Nordic skiers for supporting the Black Pine Social restaurant.
Your patronage is noticed and hugely appreciated by all of us from ownership, management to kitchen staff and wait staff. Thank you all for helping make our business successful and including us in what has quickly become an amazing group, the Silver Hares.
In turn we hope that you consider the Black Pine Social your Après ski home.
Thank you
Brandon Loughery and staff
Touques/ Headbands
All headbands have been shipped should be here mid next week, some toques with Pom Poms also on way, bout 50, Sauce still waiting to receive the rest of the Pom Poms to put on the other toques, which are ready. Pom Poms are in USA at moment and are expected to be in house at Sauce within the week to attach to the Toques. We should have those soon after that. Plan B is to receive those no Pom Pom toques the way they are but we will wait for that decision another week.
Congratulations!
Congrats to Silver Hares Nancy and Gary Goplin along with potential future Silver Hare Kathy Turnbull Spence for the just completed a 100k
skate on lake ice in Austria.
