YORKTON - The Yorkton Cross Country Ski Club is hoping Nordic sports held at Deer Park Golf Course can get a bit of added recognition with the opening of the new clubhouse.
The club made a presentation to the regular meeting of Yorkton Council Monday proposing the new clubhouse be formally called 'Deer Park Golf Course and Nordic Center'. Club representative Anne Stupak said the name would truly reflect the year-round use of this new facility.
Over the years, the Yorkton Cross Country Ski Club has been a self-sustaining club that has provided the people of Yorkton and area a winter sport and recreation area that is open the other six months of the year, she explained.
The club had used the former club house for well over 15 years.
“The new facility will be an ideal venue for hosting these events and 小蓝视频 able to have the staging area right outside the doors will make a perfect viewing area. The club is looking forward to bringing these ski competitions to Yorkton and to show off our multi-functional club house,” detailed a letter circulated to Council from the club.
Stupak explained cross country ski trails at Deer Park have been laid on the golf course for well over 50 years, with the trails groomed by volunteers.
The request was referred to committee for feedback before a decision is made.
