Women’s XC Ski Day registration is open!!! We are excited to share that this year’s event will be held at JacksonXC in Jackson, NH. They hosted back in 2016 and we are looking forward to being back on their mountainside beautiful trails.
New England Women’s XC Ski Day was started in 2002 by former Olympian Trina Hosmer of Stowe, VT. Trina was inspired by her “Sisters in Skiing” in Anchorage, Alaska, who started the Alaska Ski for Women in 1997. Like the Alaskans’ original event, Women’s XC Ski Day chooses a non-profit women’s organization to benefit, and gathers as many participants as it can for a day of cross country skiing which includes lunch and a raffle. The highlight of the day is learn-to-ski clinics with women instructors; the emphasis being on relaxed, fun learning in a supportive and encouraging environment. All ability, skill, and experience levels are welcome. In addition to this event being open to all women, we also encourage and support the participation of nonbinary people who are comfortable in a space that centers the experience of women. NENSA hopes that Women’s XC Ski Day helps bring more folx together to enjoy this wonderful sport.
Registration includes cross-country ski clinics, wax demonstrations, a fantastic prize drawing, a tasty bagged lunch, and a donation to our benefit organization (see below).
This year’s event is raising money for Starting Point which is a non-profit organization in Conway, NH dedicated to ensuring quality services are provided to victims of relationship violence and sexual abuse, preventing future relationship violence, promoting social change, and encouraging accountability and education for perpetrators and stalkers. If you would like to make an additional donation to the organization, you can do so through registration. If you would like to make a donation to the organization, you can do so through registration.
