Trinity Woods/Heartwood/Birkie, Trego, WI
We will have a training trip to Heartwood in Trego, Wisconsin (near the Birkie Trail). The trip will run from December 27th - 30th. The cost of the trip, including ten all-you-can-eat meals, transportation, lodging, and ski passes will be around $300. Sign ups will take place soon after the start of the season, and you will be given a permission slip to fill out at that time. Returning letter winners get the first opportunity to sign up, followed by 4th year non-letter winners. The remaining slots will be filled by coaches' invitation. There are typically around 40 skiers (boys and girls) able to go on this trip. If there are poor snow conditions at Maplelag, we may change the location to Ironwood, Michigan.
