Dit not end up going, and I blame it all on Environment Canada.

With their warnings of "severe winter weather" being "imminent", and predictions of "10 to 20" on Sunday, I opted not to load the sleds Saturday night. Woke up a little late Sunday thinking there would be this massive and horrible storm outside. Didn't turn out too bad and I was a little upset by days end. Storm was not as horrible as Environment Canada made it out to be.

Have not heard how the highways were, or how the race turned out.

Too bad really. I would like to see more races in and around this province so hopefully Vegreville will keep going and have a yearly race.

Anyone hear how these went?
They did have races a few years ago in the same location and they were O.K.
