Membership and Programming Registration is opening Oct 27th, 2022.

To adapt to Nova Scotia’s challenging winters, SCOTIA XC has implemented snowmaking on Brunello’s range, which may allow more on-snow sessions. However, we have had our best success for students when flexibility is an option. In the past, instructors have offered make-up sessions on different nights of the week or at different locations. Our instructors are very committed to getting you on your skis when Mother Nature permits.

Skate Skiing Technique:

• All adult programming will begin the week of Sunday Jan 8th, 2023. Coaches will be on standby for the 8 week window starting that week to provide options for lessons when weather/snow conditions permit.
• Aiming for 5 lessons. 1st week only will be off-snow if needed.
• Cost: $75 plus membership
