The Kanata Nordic Ski Club has been introducing children, youth and parents to the sport since 1979 through the Jackrabbit Ski Program, and also the Kanata Racers, a competitive racing program for the more athletically inclined.

Since 2006 we have been located at the Bonnenfant YMCA-YWCA Outdoor Centre at 1620 Sixth Line Road. To get there take Riddell Road, right off the Dunrobin Road, to Sixth Line Road, just 10 minutes north from Alcatel (See Google map). Enjoy nearly 5km of classic groomed ski trails through 120 acres of the Bonnenfant Y Outdoor Centre and Riverfront Park (See Trail Map: updated Jan-2008).

Drop off any adult or children’s cross country skis, boots or poles on Saturday between 2:00 and 5:00p.m. upstairs in Hall D. Experienced club members will be there to help you price your gear. We charge a twoonie for each item you register to sell, and will retain 20% of the sale price (to cover hall rental costs, etc.) The Swap and Sale runs Sunday from 9:00 a.m. un1l 1:00 p.m. in Halls C and D. Purchases can be made by cash or cheque. Proceeds from your sales and all unsold equipment must be picked up between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. Sunday (or make other arrangements with the volunteers there).
