The snow is starting to fall, the air is crisp, and if you listen closely, you can almost hear the soft shush of skis on freshly groomed corduroy. Yep, the holidays—and prime Nordic season—are just around the corner!

If you've got a favorite skier, snowshoer, or winter wanderer on your list (or maybe you just need a treat for yourself!), look no further than the KN rental trailer. It’s your one-stop spot for gifts that look great, keep you cozy, and directly support the trails we all love.

 Volunteer Day: 9am-4pm (potluck to follow). We're getting close to season opening (Yah!)....but there's still a lot to do around the club and we need your help!!! The iVolunteer portal has been updated so you can sign up for a task or 2 as well as the potluck (diferent sign-up). Maybe you want to help out in the morning and then go for a hike on one of the trails in the afternoon and return for a warm and cozy chili dinner in the chalet.   Hope you can be part of our awesome community.
