We will hide 150 pumpkins in our Enchanted Forest. Children 12 years and under are invited to hunt for a pumpkin, with our ski team athletes to guide them into the forest. FUN for the whole family!
Rubber Boots are recommended:)
Admission of $20 includes one pumpkin, 1 hot chocolates and 1 hotdog.
In order to spread out participants and make it a fun and safe event, we will have three sessions, one beginning at 10:00 am, second at 10:30 am, and third at 11:00 am. All tickets must be purchased online in advance at nelsonnordicski.square.site
**Please remember to bring your own mug for hot chocolate and your own drinking water. Also parking is limited please carpool if you can. Overflow parking is available at the Busk parking area.
