Spitz Sylvan Lake Ice Marathon - Fun Tour Event

Saturday, March 3 - 2007
 
 

Hello Skaters,

This year there will be no 200 km. event. A race/tour of this magnitude requires much responsibility and high costs. Also, there is a lot of extra work developing and maintaining a 10 km. track. We have not had enough skaters registered for this event to justify these extra expenditures. Our organization believes that the main 100 km. race/tour (the longest race distance in North America) will be a respectable alternative.

We hope you all will come again this year to support our event. Thanks for your understanding.

 

Banquet & Dance;

To be held Saturday, March 3, 7:30 PM., at the Tournament House, Sylvan Lake. Tickets are available from Dirk & Elizabeth Appel; phone (403) 886-2980. We would appreciate if you could order your tickets as soon as possible, as there are only a limited amount for sale. Cost is $30.00 per ticket.
