** Registration opens in mid-October. Please check back for updates

Youth Programs including Bunnyrabbits, Jackrabbits, and Track Attack focus on skills and fun! For children from age 4 to 14, these programs are scheduled for 8 weeks in January and February 2026 on Saturdays (Jan 3, 10, 17, 24, 31, Feb 7, 14, 21)

• Bunnyrabbits: Saturday afternoon 1-2 pm
• Jackrabbits: Saturday afternoon 1-3 pm
• Track Attack Skate: Saturday afternoon noon to 2 pm

The main focus of all our youth lessons is fun on the snow. Within each program we aim to address the needs of beginner and experienced skiers, sometimes in separate groups.

For more information check out our programs online.

Cool nights and fall colours means we're busy getting ready for the coming season! We're working on updates to programs and membership registration. We anticipate launching registration in mid-October and will post another update on the website, social media and email to past members.

** 2025/2026 information and rates on the Youth Programs and Race Team has been updated on the website. Please review carefully before registration and let us know if you have any questions by contacting the Youth Program Coordinator at youthprograms@kawarthanordic.ca or the Head Coach at headcoach@kawarthanordic.ca. **

Who's ready to ski?

Before we can start dreaming of fresh tracks and crisp winter days, we need to clear our trails! The spring ice storm left a bunch of trees down, and we need some extra hands to help us clear the way for a smooth season. Just check out these photos to see the challenge we're facing!

We were hopeful that we'd get another moonlight ski in this season but with the icy conditions and impending rain, we've decided that it's probably not a smart move. We'll hope for more amicable conditions in 2026.  

Join us this Sunday February 23rd for some fun events:

First: Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser for the ski team. 9am-12pm

Next up: Fat Bike Demo Day. 10am-2pm. See what all the hype is about. Bring regular boots as ski boots aren't recommended. 

Finally: Nordic Downhilling Clinic: 1-2:30pm. Great for novice skiers to gain confidence going down hills. $35. Register online or in the rental trailer. 

 Come check out our Kawartha Nordic branded merchandise; hoodies, long sleeves, tees, hats, toques, mugs and stickers. Everything is on display in the rental trailer. Members save 10%. 

UPDATE: too much snow!! Stop the snow dance. We're good. Unfortuately we need to cancel tonight's moonlight ski as the roads are in poor condition and not expecting to get any better any time soon. Hope to see you in March :) 

Join us for a magical evening of skiing under the waning snow moon.  Enjoy a hot chocolate, fire, and s’mores  followed by an open-mic coffeehouse and social in the Woodfine Chalet.

Date: Sat Feb 15th.

Guided ski starts at 7pm. Social to follow.

Free for members. Non-members need an evening trail pass.

Rental trailer will be open if anyone needs to rent equipment.
