POSTPONED-Caribou Bog XC Race

Great Caribou Bog Race postponed ; It is with regret that the race organizers for this event have had to postpone the race to February 8th, due to lack of snow. We need a minimum of 4 more inches to make the race terrain feasible for classic racing, and only 1-2” is expected this week. We realize most teams will have conference racing that day. We are obviously disappointed in the lack of cooperation by mother nature. We hope to invite other teams again next year. Thanks for your interest

The Great Caribou Bog Race, scheduled for February 1, 2025, Orono, Maine, is now open for registration, sponsored by the Penobscot Valley Ski Club and sanctioned by NENSA as a Zak club and Marathon race. This is offered in 3 distances; 10k,22k, and 33k. Last year we entered our Orono High school team for the 10 k race,  with athletes registering a very positive experience A description of the race can be found at https://www.pvskiclub.org/. This is an old community race being opened to high school teams at a reduced cost of $15 per racer. If there are enough high school participants, there is the possibility of a separate wave for this age group. Individuals can register on their own at https://www.skireg.com/8064. For the discount for teams (and price may be negotiable), please have a running order in to me by January 25, and no later than the 29th. We can enter the names into ski-reg from there, and payment can be made day of race. Under 18, must have a parental waiver, which I can send electronically to coaches. There is a lodge and facilities on site. For info and/or registration please contact me directly. Thanks and see you there!
