Due to unseasonably warm temperatures we are forced to cancel our season opener in Turtle Lake, WI.
As of Friday afternoon the lake was still open. Even though the temps are favorable this weekend, the forecast is still not the ice making forecast we need to make enough ice for us to safely hold a race with the days we have remaining.
For those looking to race there is a race being held in Ironwood Michigan, check out http://www.wksra.com for more information. Look on the other youth racing groups websites for other races, as I know they are fighting ice conditions as well.
Looking ahead at the month of January:
Spooner: Open water as of Saturday afternoon, possible cancellation
White Bear Lake: Possible cancellation due to lack of ice/Permit
Center City: Possible cancellation/reschedule by the Chamber of Commerce
Please check back often as we work hard to get these races sorted out. A lot of things are undetermined due to the weather and our January schedule may be adjusted as necessary. A venue change is possible for the Center City and the White Bear Lake race weekend as well as a make up race/races for the Turtle Lake and or Spooner race.
