If you are interested in amateur ski racing, consider joining the
Snowriders racing team this year. We will choose a racing program
at one of two mountains: Nashoba or Wachusett. We will choose the
area and night to race once the team has been formed. Sorry,
downhill skiers only, no snowboards or telemark.

Deadline is October 19, 2005!
