Kamloops This Week
Registration is open for the Reino Keski-Salmi Loppet, which will be held in Salmon Arm on Jan. 17.
The full-day cross-country skiing event, a fundraiser for the Heart and Stroke Foundation for the past 30 years, has raised more than $400,000 since its inception.
Skiers of all ages and skill levels are invited to gather at the Larch Hills ski area and enjoy a hot lunch, pool time, appy hour and a family dance.
There are various course lengths for the loppet, ranging from one kilometre for children four and under to 30 kilometres for adults.
For information on entry fees and registration, which closes on Jan. 15, go online to skilarchhills.ca or call Tina Letham at 250-832-8676.
