Trail Report

About as good as it gets for a winterlike day on the trails. Conditions were pretty much ideal for the DL Invitational ski meet today. Cloudy in the morning and then clearing in the afternoon with no wind and temps in the middle teens. Teams from Detroit Lakes, Bemidji, Brainerd, Long Prairie, Deer River, Fergus Falls, and Northwest and Battle Lake hit the trails with lots of smilin’ good times. Conditions a bit soft for racing with all the fresh snow but beautiful in the woods and could of not asked for a better day. Grooming on the trails the rest of the week as we gear up for the weekend.  Select photos below from the day. More photos and results will be posted on skinnyski.com (go to racing/results and high school section)

Concordia Language Villages

We feel very fortunate to be the host of El Lago del Basque,
one of Concordia College’s Spanish Language Villages, for eleven weeks
in the summer. It is exciting to be part of an atmosphere where students
are totally immersed in the culture of the various Spanish-speaking countries. In the Summer of 2008, we hosted Portuguese for two weeks of the summer and will do so again for 2009.
If you have been to Maplelag with your children or grandchildren, then
this would be a great place to send a first time camper. They will have
the advantage of being in familiar surroundings where they will have the
Richards families near by. And, once they have been here, don’t be surprised
if they want to come back again the next year!
