Groups & Events
You're invited to participate in free guided 'wild skating' tours and ice safety training workshops, which are announced online in the following locations:
Google groups (also known as 'listservs') are most likely to feature announcements of events before they happen - keeping in mind that most events are planned on short notice due to changing ice conditions. If you have difficulty applying to join any of these groups, email nordicskate@gmail.com and we'll connect you with the group administrator.
