The Timberland Ski Club took 10 racers to the end of year Nancy Greene Festival, hosted by the Sun Peaks Ski Club at Sun Peaks Resort, March 24-25.

The festival at Sun Peaks was a lot of fun, the club said, and was well organized by the host team, Sun Peaks Alpine Club and Nancy Greene.

The event saw more than 400 racers ranging in age from five to 12 years old. Timberland Ski Club racers did very well competing against much larger clubs from Sun Peaks, Whistler, Silverstar and Grouse. Almost every ski hill and ski club from Prince George to Vancouver and Vancouver Island was represented.

Although the Timberland team was one of the smallest in attendance our skiers had solid performances with strong finishes in every event — slalom, jump, radar, combi/skier cross and moguls.

The club said it was also thrilled to bring home a medal. In the Combi/Skier Cross event Grace Turner placed third and brought home the bronze medal given to her by Nancy Greene herself.

The Timberland Ski Club said it would like to thank all of the parents who helped to make the event run smoothly for the team.

Also, the club would like to recognize head coach Ivan Scrooby and the volunteer coaches Chris Holloway, Mike Boehm and Andy Turner. We couldn’t have done it without everyone’s help.
