2025 National Cross-Country Ski Weekend in Craftsbury, Vermont
New this year! Registration by lottery.
Due to unprecedented demand for this event for the past 3 years, we have decided to do registration via lottery to increase access to the sign-up process. Here's how it will work:
Anytime between Dec 1 and Dec 15, you can sign up for the event by adding your name to the event "waitlist." It doesn't matter when you sign up as long as it's before the deadline on Dec 15th.
Shortly after December 15th, we will pull names via lottery. If your name is selected you will be notified, and payment will secure your spot. All others will be placed on the waitlist as per the lottery outcome. As spaces open up, you will be notified.

FAQs:
Q: I am entering the lottery with my partner/spouse/etc. How does
this work?
A: We will put your names (together) into the lottery ,TWICE, to
provide you with equal probability.
Please note for those attending with a partner: We can count both of
your names as one, and put you into the lottery twice.
Q: I only want to come if I can have a single room. What if the only
opening is a double?
A: We will fiil the single versus double rooms as they are selected
by the lottery process. If there are no single rooms available when
you are picked then you will be placed on the waiting list for a
single.
Q: I am fine with being in a double. Do I have to pre-select a
roommate?
A: No, we will assign you a roommate.
Q: How quickly does the waitlist open up?
A: It depends on when people cancel. Sometimes it is right before a
refund deadline. Often there are cancellations at the last minute due
to illness or life circumstances, so being flexible can work out in the
end.
