Snow, Snow & More Snow!

Thank you to everyone that has been doing snow dances, Michigan finally listened and has been dumping the powder all week. We are hoping this new snow will set up nicely for us over the next few days, and we will have some great racing conditions this weekend!

Sharing Is Caring

This weekend we will be sharing the hill with MHSAA Division 2 State Championship qualifiers. They will be training on the opposite hill we are racing on. Please be welcoming and respect our co-dwellers, we never know who might be a future MACC Racer.
