Events
Wausau Nordic Ski Club hosts and supports multiple events throughout the year.
The IRONBULL Ring of Snow Challenge is a solo or team relay challenge on skis with Wausau Nordic Ski Club and IRONBULL! Join in the festivities with beverages, food, and music at Tribute Golf Course. A cooperative event with IRONBULL will be held early in the year.
We will be looking for help in organizing and marketing the event to the broader ski community, not just the usual crowd of racers.

Snekkevik Ski Race
The Snekkevik Ski Race is the second oldest continuing organized ski race in the state. In 2023, the event was scaled back to a High School and Middle School race only and moved to the golf course due to conditions at Nine Mile. Over 300 youth skiers attended skiing a classic race and was a very successful event.
Wausau Nordic Ski Club will hold the Snekkevik on January 11, 2025 - details to come.
For more info or to volunteer, email snekkevik@wausaunordic.org
Together with the Rib Mountain Alpine Club, the Wausau Nordic Ski Club hosts an annual Ski Swap.
Alpine and Nordic gear will be available and accepted for sale. Get your gear, buy 50/50 raffle tickets to support the youth program operational costs, and volunteer!
