Important Notes

1) Owl Camp 
For those planning on going to Owl Camp Sunday July 3rd to July 6th, here is the information. 

Owl Camp is an awesome experience with a perfect setting as we camp on the shores of the Ottawa river. It is really fun and social, the food is amazing, and there are many opportunities to train and have lots of good recovery time. 

The goal of this camp is volume and team building. We train 4 to 5 hours per day doing a mix of running, skate/classic skiing, 
swimming, strength and many other fun and unique trainings. This year we will be joining Nakkertok and team 
Ontario Development Squad so there will about 70 cross-country athletes at Owl during this camp. 
There will be great opportunities to train with many different skiers, not just Chelsea club members. 

The camp will cost $170. This includes camping for 3 nights and 9 meals from Sunday until Wednesday. 

The Camp starts Sunday at 1:00 p.m and ends Wednesday at 4:00 p.m 

Please sign up on the following Google Doc by next Tuesday (June, 21st). 
Please include any food sensitivities such as gluten, nuts, vegetarian diet, etc.

You are responsible for transportation from Chelsea to Owl, we will not need to travel once we are there. 
Once registration is complete we will share the list of those coming so that families can arrange for carpooling. 

I look forward to seeing you there! 

2) Sign up for sportlog.ca!
I cannot emphasize the importance of this enough.
Keeping track of your training is essential for both
celebrating improvements and preventing injury.
