NYSSRA Skiers are encouraged to compete in at least Sunday’s 20 km classic championship race, and are also encouraged to bring their non-NYSSRA skiing friends to race as well. Even if your friends are brand new to the sport, they can still participate in the 4 ish Km classic “Try-it” for charity ski on Sunday. We have partnered with the Alzheimer’s Association this year and are encouraging touring skiers, families and skiers of all ages to join us for a fun, healthy Nordic ski event.

On Sunday, after the NYSSRA Championship races, skiers will gather together in the XC stadium for all-season awards, Wilkinson Cup awards, race awards and a festive get-together. This will include food and drink and go from 1:00-1:30 to 3:00. The awards will include Point-series and red group awards (this year featuring racing hats from Podiumwear). Remember, to be eligible to win a points series award, skiers must compete and complete the 20 km NYSSRA Champions Cup Race. Current Points Standings are found here.
