NEW & NOTEWORTHY
Wickham/Huckle This Weekend and Gold Cup March 16
This Saturday is the Wickham Memorial Slalom, Sunday has the Earl Huckle Memorial Giant Slalom, and Sunday March 16th is the Gold Cup Super G. Racers can get more information and sign up for events on the Caberfae Race Page.
Sunday, March 9th is the Earl Huckle Memorial Race which is the single largest fundraiser for the Cadillac Area Ski Club. CASC underwrites all things racing at Caberfae including the Junior Program, Wednesday Night Race League, the Spring Race Series, and much of the equipment used by Cadillac High School Ski Team. The CASC strives to keep ski racing affordable and accessible for Cadillac area families.
There will once again be a silent auction in Beaties Bar and Grill following the race. Donations for the auction are encouraged but this is not a ski swap, so please no used items without significant antique value. Please contact Meg Mogan at (231) 468-1176 to arrange a pickup of an item or drop it off to Beaties the morning of the event.
The simplest way to support is a monetary donation. If you or someone you care about has benefited from the Club’s efforts, please consider a donation using one of the two methods below.

Winter Carnival Around the Corner
March 15 brings the annual spring carnival at Caberfae with lots of fun for the whole family. Check out the schedule of events HERE.
Double Parking is Allowed…But With a Catch
With so many people enjoying this great snow year, weekend and event parking can be full to overflowing. Double parking can be a solution but please make sure to drop your car keys with Sue in the kitchen so other vehicles can get out when they need to.
Parking Request for Truck and Large Vehicle Owners
The Club is busy and attendance at special events has been great! This also means a full parking lot many weekends. The Board is asking that the first two parking spots inside the gate, adjacent to the McKenzie Lodge, be CARS ONLY to avoid blocking the gate. This is both a fire egress issue as well as general safety issue for the parking lot. Thank you!
