New Club Vests for Junior Joeys and Junior Birkies

Posted on May 2, 2012 by

We are getting new club vests for junior skiers in our Joey and Junior Birkie programs.  The vests are 300gm micro fleece in our club Royal blue. They will have the club logo on the front and embroidered “Junior Birkie” on the back.

With a generous grant from the Mt Beauty branch of the Bendigo Bank we are pleased to offer a subsidy and the vests will be priced at only $12.

The sizing is a little unusual and it is worth measuring for size. Please check the sizing by clicking here and email your request to marg@trnka.com.au  by May 16th to be part of the order.

Posted on November 18, 2011 by

On Saturday November 26, Birkebeiner Nordic Ski Club is holding its annual end-of-season BBQ in the picnic area by the lake in Mount Beauty from 5.30 p.m.

I do hope you and your family can come.

We will provide the meat (and vegie burgers for those who prefer them), as well as bread and sauce.

You’ll need to bring your own chair, cutlery, plates, drinks, plus for families, a salad and a sweet to share (singles and couples please bring a salad OR a sweet to share).

Please tell us how many of you will be coming and how many need vegetarian food. If you don’t reply, we will assume you are not coming so we won’t over-order.
