Welcome to the the Hibbing Nordic Ski Club Website!!!

Website Audience

The intended audience for the website includes the:

1. Youth Ski Program (both students and parents), sponsored by Hibbing Parks and Recreation. This program is aimed at kids ages 5-12 who want to develop their nordic skiing skills from stepping to the diagonal stride and skate skiing. This program lays the foundation for a lifetime of enjoyment for the sport. Many of the kids move on to the competitive nordic teams in high school and college. Parents are encouraged to participate during lessons.
2. Ski Team - organized by Gerry and Lisa Wyland, this program is aimed at being a competitive group of nordic skiers ages 13-18. The hope is that this group will eventually be incorporated into a official nordic high school team. Currently, the nordic ski team competes in many of the statewide nordic competitions as a "club" team.
3. The Nordic Ski Community in general - aimed at people of all ages who enjoy nordic skiing and would like a way of communicating and sharing the nordic experience by meeting other people with a common interest.

The Hibbing Nordic Ski Club was formed by the Hibbing Parks and Recreation Department at the request of Chelsea Davidson, a Hibbing High School student.  Parks and Recreation joined forces with Gerry Wyland and his wife Lisa.  Gerry, Lisa and Brian Karich (Hibbing Parks and Recreation) have the passion to add hours of volunteer service, to share their technical skill, advice and instruction for the club members.  In 2007 the informal group had 12 high school age students who met several times per week and participated in week-end ski adventures.
