The North Okanagan Zone and the Revelstoke Ski Club returned to Nancy Greene Ski League racing on Sunday January 30th, hosting the “Gnome Cup” paneled slalom at Revelstoke Mountain Resort. As is tradition at the Revelstoke Ski Club, we woke up to 10cm of fresh snow on race day, and it just kept falling. Thanks to the hard work of our outstanding volunteer team, the race went off smoothly and on schedule! (And the visiting teams got treated to some great pow skiing!) Revelstoke U12 Head Coach Céline Rytz set a fun and challenging course that got a bit like a bobsled track, but which maintained a good surface throughout the day.
