Description:
This is a great opportunity for members to volunteer and get outdoors, enjoy the fresh air and get some horizontal exercise without any elevation gain and assist with Staking the Lake at Lake Louise to mark the 1 Kilometer and 2 Kilometer trails prior to Race Day that is scheduled for Sunday, March 6.
