If you are thinking about entering the 2019 3-Event and Novice State Championships, held at Lake Jepawhit and Tivoli Gardens in Gaines Twp, here are some reasons to participate:
1. Fun to be part of Michigan’s largest sanctioned tournament of the year, on two of Michigan’s nationally acclaimed sites, behind the BEST ski boats in the industry.
2. Exciting to measure where your skiing stands in the State.
3. One round any event for $45 and/or $10 each additional round/event. Novice skiers ski Friday for $40 for two rounds.
4. Best of two round format determines State Champions in Slalom, Trick, and Jump.
5. A slalom Novice Championship event available to skiers that qualify.
Available daylight, weather conditions, and time may impact the offering or completion of second rounds in any of the events. Should such a circumstance arise, placement for the affected divisions will be determined on first round performances. In the past, the three-day event has generated many skiers. With so many at the site, it has been a great opportunity to hang-out with skiers and watch some great skiing.
