Girl Scouts of Michigan Shore to Shore
Following a fantastic cross-country skiing event last season, Forbush Corner Nordic and the Girl Scouts of Michigan Shore to Shore are excited to announce that plans are underway for another snowy adventure this coming winter!
Building on last year's success, both organizations are hoping to team up again to give Girl Scouts—from first-timers to seasoned pros—the opportunity to get out on the trails, practice their Nordic skiing skills, and earn a commemorative fun patch with guidance from trained instructors.
We are currently finalizing details and scheduling for this season's event. Registration will be handled through the Girl Scouts of Michigan Shore to Shore, so stay tuned for upcoming dates, registration links, and additional information as winter approaches!
In the meantime, you can check out the Girl Scouts of Michigan Shore to Shore website for general council news and updates.
At Forbush Corner, we understand the challenge of outfitting growing kids with properly fitting skis and boots. That’s why we offer our Rent-to-Own Kids Program, designed to make cross-country skiing more affordable. This five-year program ensures young skiers have equipment that grows with them, and by the end of the program—or once their growth spurt slows—they’ll leave with a high-quality set of XC skis, boots, and poles to call their own.
Each year, the skier will be provided with a properly fitted set of high-quality rental skis, boots, and poles. The cost of the rental decreases each year they remain in the program, which spans five consecutive years. At the end of the program, they’ll receive a brand-new set of skis, boots, and poles to keep.
If they participate for fewer than five years, 66% of the total rental fees paid will be credited toward the purchase of a new ski package.
Please note: Customers are responsible for any excessive wear or damage to the rental equipment.
Check with staff in the shop about the current cost of the program.
