Invitation to Ski on Parliament Hill Wednesday February 15th

Dear Ski Friends,

Please come and ski with us on Parliament Hill on Wednesday February 15th at 12 noon until about 1 pm to promote National Health and Fitness Day. Senator Nancy Greene Raine will be joined by fellow Senators, MPs, Ottawa youth, Olympians/Paralympians and a very special guest for a friendly nordic ski on the famed grounds in front of the Parliament buildings.

This unique event is being held in partnership with the Nakkertok Nordic Club and XC Ski Fast (skixcfast@nakkertok.ca) who will provide ski equipment to anyone wanting to try cross country skiing but you should bring your own. The track will be groomed using the equipment that sets the new Sir John A MacDonald trail along the Ottawa River. www.wintertrail.ca @SJAMwintertrail
