2024 World Snow Day Celebrations

World Snow Day:

Sunday, January 21, 2023 is the official World Snow Day date.

World Snow Day is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the joys of winter and snow-related activities at your club. It’s an event that encourages people to get outside and enjoy the winter season. XCSO will provide guidelines.

In the meantime we encourage you to consider hosting a World Snow Day Celebration at your club or in your community by registering this event with FIS, and putting the date on your club calendar. It would be great to see some more red diamonds on the FIS map!
