The 41st annual Ski for Light (SFL) International Week will take place from Sunday, Jan. 24th through Saturday, Jan. 30th, 2016, in northwest lower Michigan on the grounds of Shanty Creek Resorts in Bellaire, Mich. Located just 45 minutes from the Traverse City airport, Shanty Creek Resorts is a 4,500-acre complex containing three housing and entertainment villages, both cross-country and downhill ski trails, a tubing hill, several swimming pools and hot tubs, a fitness center and spa, and much more.

 

If you are a novice and want to learn how to cross-country ski, or if you have skied before and just want to be matched with an experienced guide and meet new friends for a wonderful week of fun in the snow, this is the event for you!

 

If you are a guide dog user, you should know that several schools send representatives to Ski for Light events to provide exercise and companionship for guide dogs who cannot accompany their partners on the slopes.

 

Applications are due Nov. 1. Late applications will be considered on a space-available basis. For more information, or to apply, visit www.sfl.org/event <http://www.sfl.org/event>  .
