Cross-country skiing workshop Jan. 11 | Events

ADA TOWNSHIP, Mich.—With more than a foot of fresh snow throughout most of West Michigan, it’s a perfect time to learn how to cross-country ski.

The Ada Township Parks and Recreation Department will offer a introductory workshop this Saturday, Jan. 11.  Participants will learn about the necessary equipment and techniques to cross-country ski before heading out into Roselle Park to try it out, with the guidance of a coach.

The workshop is $5 for adults and $3 for youth, not including equipment rentals.   Rentals are available locally at Bill & Paul’s Sporthaus, located at 1200 E. Paris.   Participants can also bring their own skis.

Pre-registration is encouraged.  To register, call (616) 676-0520 or email mfitzpatrick@adatownshipmi.com .
