The OSC will host a spring training camp in the Banff area April 28 to May 5.  If you are interested in this opportunity contact Dave before April 9th.

OSC riders had some fantastic results this past weekend at the Ontario Provincials held at MSLM.  Former OSC athlete Richie Evanoff took the gold against stiff competition from our riders.  See the full event results here.

Also, congratulations to Carter, Jack and Rachel who all took home gold medals for their age groups!

The SBX team also had a fantastic weekend.

Elle Herron took the Gold medal and overall points series title for Jr Ladies, while team new comer, Mitch MacKichan, placed second in the Jr men’s, but was able to maintain his series lead and took the Jr Men’s cup!

In Open Ladies, Tayler Wilton went into finals in first place.  In the big finals, a tough battle in turn three left Tayler with a silver medal behind her rival Zoe.  Connor Abbott had some of his best runs in a course this season.  His hard fights and determination resulted in a 7th place finish for the day.  Well done!

Former OSC athletes Pierce Smith, Ryan Tryhane, Kenny Reidman and Nolan Tipping had awesome results too.

At this time, all OSC athletes of FIS age should be qualified to move onto Canadian Nationals at Mt Tremblant.  Check out the event notice and the latest details for Nationals.  Check out the OSC calendar for more information and details for our trip out there.

Congratulations to Taylor Dee who captured the PGS silver medal on Thursday at MSLM. For Taylor’s take on the race, check out his article in the Orangeville Banner.  Former OSC athlete, Richard Evanoff took the gold, while up and comer Jack Keating raced hard to finish fourth.

On the women’s side, Megan Farrell owned the gold medal spot, while Cora Fellows found second and Hannah Silk took the third place spot.  Jess Herron was close behind in fourth.

The SBX event ended up being cancelled after a series of track closures and course resets pushed the time constraints of the schedule.  All OSC athletes were starting to figure out the challenging course, unfortunately, both Chris and Eleanor had hard falls before they were able to tie all the sections together.

Several OSC riders will be at MSLM on March 4 to participate in one day of competition.  Come see them ride and cheer them on!  Volunteers still needed, so drop the AOS a line if you’ll be there with nothing to do!  Check out the OWG site for more details.
