History
The Lodi Area XC Ski Club was formed in November, 2005 with the mission of
providing local cross-country skiing. The Lakeland Hills Country Golf Club and
the City of Lodi have generously allowed the club to groom the golf course and
surrounding land for skiing. There is currently a 6 km + groomed trail. All
grooming is done by volunteers on a shoe-string budget.
The Lodi Nordic Ski Team is comprised of middle school and high school
students that practice three days a week on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday
and usually one weekend day from 3:30 to 5:00 pm. In 2008, a Youth Ski
Program was formed for kids in primary and elementary schools (grades 1-5).
There is also an adult training group in development.
The club is supported by a Community Grant offered by the Sauk Prairie
Memorial Hospital Foundation to promote Wellness and Healthy lifestyle choices
as well as the American Birkiebeiner Ski Foundation.
The Madison Nordic Ski Club also supports Lodi with various equipment. Other
sponsors include the Lodi Canning Company, Lodi Optimist Club, Rotary Club,
the Kuenzi family, Jake & Julie Jacobson, the Endres Family Jazzy Jersey Farm,
and over 40 local patrons.
