Rules
-Entries must be made a minimum of 5 days before the date chosen.
-Only one entry per person.
-The first day of of skiing will be determined by photographic confirmation that skiing has taken place. Skiing must be on the GMNC trail system — Skyway, County Line or Ward trails. (Presumably this will be before the grooming has begun.)
-First person or group to submit photos of the first ski will be declared winner of the First Skier of 2022. If multiple people submit acceptable photos, winner will be determined by time of day (photo at 9am wins over one taken at 11am).
-In the event that there are more than 3 entries meeting the winning criteria, we will announce and celebrate all winners, and have a random drawing to award up to 5 prizes total.
To submit verification of your first ski, email a photo to melissa@gmnc.org. Include the time and place that the photo was taken.
