MLK Day. Monday J15, '24

Cold temps have returned and we've got snow in the forecast tomorrow. Will it be enough to bring back nordic skiing to the Fairgrounds? We'll see what Mother Nature brings us...but it can't hurt to do your snow dance. I remember grooming snow on this day about 7 years ago up at Gould Hill Orchard. We had a ton of new snow and the temps were frigid with a cold wind howling. It was so cold we took 45 minute shifts on the Skandic. Good times for the nordic grooming squad!!
