Cross Country Skiing for Youth Ages 7-18
The purpose of the Ellensburg ski team is to introduce youth ages 7-18 to cross country skiing and competitive cross country ski racing. We instruct both classic style and skating techniques. Participants are able to compete in youth races in the area. Skiers can work towards racing at the regional and national level. We welcome skiers of all levels from beginners to expert. We are in our 12th year of bringing skiing to youth in Kittitas County.
We want to make skiing available to all youth, regardless of financial situation. We provide scholarships for equipment. The program is run through donations, and a fee is not required to participate. We are a 501c3 organization.
The Ellensburg Ski Team grooms the trails in Rotary Park in cooperation with the City of Ellensburg. These trails are open and free to use for all community members.
We are looking forward to a more normal 2021-2022 winter. We look forward to traveling to some races this winter!
Departure times for 2021-2022. We will plan to leave Ellensburg at these times. Parents bringing participants can meet at the venue using the travel times on the "where we ski" page. All times will be sent out via Remind* message each week.
