Hello Nordic Folk!
With the arrival of 220 young racers for the BC Midget Championships at the start of the month, March certainly came in like a lion at the RNSC. More sunshine is on the way and we have lots of snow so get out there and enjoy the trails.

We also want to thank-you for supporting our club through your membership fees, your volunteering, and your efforts to help members and guests work with our guidelines and policies. Here is the news for March:
