DION Snowshoe Series Updates

The 2012 snowshoe season has certainly been a challenge for us snowshoe racers and RD's so far. Hopefully a real winter will arrive soon. Please take a close look at the Series Calendar and Points Page. Changes have occurred. The State Championship will still take place February 19 in Winona Forest. The 10km race option will now be a point's race. The series has expanded into March, with The Winona 5km "Stone Wall" Classic March 4 being the last point's race, and series prizes will now be awarded at the McCauley MountainMan Snowshoe Challenge, March 11, which will include large $$ prizes. See you at the races.

Is a huge supporter of the Dion Snowshoe Series.
