Great Outdoors & Active Lifestyle Program for Youths

by SCOTIA XC Ski Club, September 15, 2023

The Great Outdoors  & Active Lifestyle program (GOAL), is an eight week program being offered by SCOTIA XC Ski Club for youths ages 8-12 years, scheduled every Wednesday from 4:15 p.m. – 5 p.m., from Sept. 20th – Nov. 8th, 2023, at Shubie Park, Dartmouth. The fee is $30 and participants must have a SCOTIA XC Ski Club membership.

The program will provide a fun outdoor experience with a focus on running across a variety of terrain through games and activities. The engaging activities will include individual and group challenges such as tag games, relays, running through natural mazes, and possibly include one night run using head lamps. The program will continue in most weather, including rain.

The participants will have the opportunity to provide their own ideas in what activities the group will play.  Overall, the idea of the program is to get kids of similiar age having fun outside exercising in a group environment. 

Join Coach Dave Hubley for this fun fall program! Coach Dave is a retired teacher who has years of experience providing fun and informative programs to skiers of all ages. Coach Dave has led youth ski lessons at SCOTIA XC Ski Club for the past several years.
