🌲❄️🌲 Celebrating Friendship, Food & the Season Ahead

Join us for our annual Fall Kick-Off Dinner as we reconnect with old friends, welcome new faces, share stories of our outdoor adventures and start making plans for the upcoming cross-country ski season!

Along with dinner and plenty of time to socialize, we'll have club announcements, a preview of upcoming winter events and ski outings, trail talk, and ski maintenance tips to help everyone get ready for the season ahead. Bring your questions, ideas, and enthusiasm for winter!

🥣 New This Year — Chili Bar & Dish to Pass!

We're changing things up this year with a Chili Bar featuring two delicious options provided by CNSC:

• Turkey Chili

• Vegetarian Chili

The club will also provide cornbread, apple cider, and seltzer.

We're asking everyone attending to bring a dish to share.   

Bring a favorite dish to share! Looking for ideas? Here are a few suggestions to complement our Chili Bar:

• Salads: Tossed green salad, coleslaw, pasta salad, bean salad, or seasonal fruit salad.

• Vegetable sides: Roasted vegetables, corn salad, sweet potato casserole, or your favorite vegetable dish..

• Desserts: Cookies, brownies, pies, cakes, or other sweet treats.

🥣🍴☕ Please bring your own place setting, including a bowl for chili, utensils, and a cup or mug. This helps us reduce waste and makes cleanup easier.

🍁👋🍁 Everyone Is Welcome!

This event is FREE for current members, past members, guests, prospective members, and anyone interested in cross-country skiing.

It's our way of saying thank you for supporting CNSC and celebrating the start of another ski season together.

🍂 Please RSVP by Wednesday, November 4!

Let us know you're coming and how many people in your group will be attending so we can plan for enough chili, cornbread, and beverages.
