Perkinstown Snowshoe Race
I can almost feel it; the
anticipation, the excitement, the...cold. Its getting close already - the
2009 Perkinstown Snowshoe Race that is. It
will be held on Saturday, January 17th, 2009 at the Winter Sports Park in
Perkinstown, WI. People from across the region will gather to compete or to enjoy a nice walk
through
the heart of the Chequamegon National Forest. The groomed courses
have been and I anticipate will be great again this year and will allow all to enjoy the rolling hills, picturesque mixed
hardwood, and coniferous forest.
Organizing activities are
already started in order to prepare a set of snowshoe events that will create a
delightful set of memories for you and your family or friends for years to come.
Please keep an eye on this website for further information and registration
information.
