Hello all!
I know I say this every year. But I do
love the month of March. My sweet little boy ain't so little any more and turns
9 on the "Ides" (he's 5 in the photo!). That's only reason number one. There are
many other reasons, like more day length, great skiing (even despite the lack of
significant snow), spring break, the Oosik Classic Ski Race, the Trio Fat Tire
Bike Race, some artists coming out of winter hibernation, and Denali Brewing
Company's homebrew weekend. Almost seems like we try to pack in all of our fun
before summer hits! While you're out enjoying the sunshine, we hope you'll stop
in at the Squirrel...
Second Saturday Art Opening
- Three Man Show
Jon Mann, Chris Bowman and Bill Barstow
will surely dazzle us with recent paintings, pastels, sketches and other recent
artistic endeavors. It's always a pleasure to see what they come up with and
take the opportunity to appreciate some fine art! Come by for the opening,
Saturday, March 14, 3-5pm. Their exhibit will be on display
through early April.
Oosik Classic Ski Race -
March 21
What can I say? Maybe we'll still get more
snow, but even if we don't, all 750 ski racers are sure to have a blast! Rumor
has it that the race start will be taking place right next door at the Mile 11
DOT gravel pit again. Whether you plan to sign up and ski, or come to
watch, stop over at the Squirrel before or after and we'll be ready with many
smiling staff members, breakfast wraps, soups, sandwiches, cookies, loaves of
bread to take home on Sunday, plus awesome coffee! This year we'll try to have
an extra porta-potty on hand, and we're aiming to keep the parking lot a little
more organized. We're also donating cookies for the Junior Oosik which happens
in the morning!
