Help us welcome Emilie Cayer-Huard onboard as our new General Manager!

From Emilie:

As a life-long nordic skier and a KNC member and volunteer ever since moving to Kimberley in 2011, I am honoured to step into the General Manager role. Coming home this summer after two years living in France, I am excited to be back and contribute to this special place. I look forward to working together with the KNC Board, staff, volunteers, partners and all of you to bring the club vision to life in alignment with its core values: quality, community and sustainability.

Wow! The parking lot has been consistently busy with everyone out there enjoying the trails! To ensure that everyone has a smooth experience at the trailhead, and to ensure emergency vehicles are able to safely navigate the parking lot if needed, a few reminders:
🚗 Cars in the middle, trucks on the outside
🚗 Pull up as far as you can
🚗 Fold hitch bike racks in
🚗 It is illegal to park in or block handicap spots unless you have a permit to do so
🚗 If other parking is available, please refrain from blocking the gate

Jackrabbit Jackrabbit is a bestseller, wow! If you haven't gotten a copy, hop on over to Papervale books to pick one up. A portion of the proceeds goes towards funding our Jackrabbits program!

Our 2 best selling books since we opened, almost 6 months ago 🤯.

Bushrat of the St Mary's Valley by Larry Shannon

Jackrabbit, Jackrabbit a bunny scavenger hunt by Samantha Najarro

Btw if you haven't picked up a copy for yourself yet, put that on your todo list. Proceeds from Jackrabbit, Jackrabbit go to the Nordic Club.

Which book is #1.....

(insert drum roll)

Jackrabbit, Jackrabbit !!

Can't wait to see what Sam () comes out with next.
