It is possible to talk to your guidance councillor and do 2 days of training with sport etude. Hadley is doing a sport etude but it is only for grades 7 and 8. grade 9 to 11 athletes can still join sport etude but they will miss class a couple of times a week, it is a good way to get your training done during the day, be with a highly motivated group of athletes. I recommend Wednesdays and Fridays from 1:30-3:30pm Training will be at the Relais Plien Air The cost of this program will be $650 for the year If you are interested talk to Moe Skinouk Roller Ski Race On September 21st we will be participating in the Skinouk Roller ski race.
