Roy Varney Eastern Cup Update

Justin Beckwith · February 2, 2023 ·

@flyingpoint capturing a group of U16 girls at the finish of the 2022 Roy Varney Eastern Cup. It was the first large race hosted in New England since the start of the pandemic. Skiers come to Waterville, Maine from all across the Eastern Region and beyond.

Due to an extremely cold forecast for Friday and Saturday the Race Committee has made changes to the 2023 Roy Varney Eastern Cup schedule and event distances.  Both mass start competitions will take place on Sunday with Classic in the morning and Freestyle in the afternoon.

Race Order Sunday: Classic Mass Start 5k U16, 7.5k Open — Freestyle Mass Start: 5k U16, 7.5k Open

The venue will be open on Friday, but there will be no official training or indoor space — please use extreme caution as windchill factors will be severe.

Official Training will be Saturday from 3-5pm.  The start area and a single track will be available for Classic inspection — the rest of the course will allow for Freestyle inspection.

Courses will remain open during competition for bibbed athletes and coaches — please do not overtake competitors.  Also note there will be ample wax testing and warmup opportunities, noted on Course Maps as “Wax Testing Area.”

REGISTRATION PAGE
**Registration will remain open until Friday at noon**
(please email staff@nensa.net with any changes/questions)
