Frosty Freestyle & Krazy Klassic Cross Country Ski Race

SNOWMAKING!

Worried about snow? Huron Meadows Metropark's three snow guns pretty much guarantee snow coverage over the 2.5km-long Buck’s Run Trail. If Mother Nature doesn't deliver the real stuff, we'll race laps on Buck’s Run. If we have lots of natural snow, the Frosty Freestyle and Krazy Klassic will run on the normal ski trails at Huron Meadows.

All proceeds from the race are donated to Huron Meadows to help fund ski instructors, cross country ski trail development, snow making, and rental equipment. We’re all volunteers who simply want to see everyone get out and enjoy the winter!
