THIRD LARGEST ENROLLMENT finish, and was unhurt. Jackrabbit league back By JESSE ZIELKE After a successful 1986/87 season the Jackrabbit Ski League is back again and the club had 80. Jackrabbit regis- trants last year, which was the third largest enrolment in the province next to 100 Mile House and Williams Lake. The club is hoping to get as many or more children involved in the league this year. For those not familiar with the Jackrabbit Ski League here is a little bit of history and information about the program. Back in the 1930s Herman Smith-Johansen, a Nor- wegian in his mid-60s in- troduced cross-country ski- ing to Canadians in the Laur- entian Mountains of Quebec. He was given the nickname “Jackrabbit” because of his boundless energy, love of his sport and his sense of fun. Sadly, Herman Smith-Joh- ansen died last year at the age of 112. He left his legacy of fun and enthusiasm in the form of the Canadian Jack- rabbit Ski League. The objective of the Jack- rabbit Ski League is “to motivate children towards excellence in cross-country skiing and fitness as a life- style.” In B.C. we add. the stipulation that it also be fun and inexpensive. In Castlegar we use the “Jackrabbit” hill thanks to the cooperation of the golf club. Jackrabbits meet at least eight times during the winter on Saturday mornings — This year starting Jan. 9.
