Still have wooden skis or long, straight skis kicking around? If they pre-date 1975, consider registering by Friday for Saturday's 7th Annual Vermont Antique Ski Race.

The fun race benefits the Vermont Ski Museum and it often includes former Vermont Olympians and US Ski Team members. An awards ceremony and sugar-on-snow follow the race.
