Ring in the new year with a ski race for a good cause, NECKA’s Warmth Fund. We will donate 85% of the proceeds of the event to the Warmth Fund (saving a bit to cover our event expenses) so that we can help our neighbors stay warm this winter.
Whether you are looking for a tune-up race ahead of the heart of race season or you just want to get out for a ski and support a good cause, come join us at the Race for Warmth.

The Marathon Ski Festival is back for another fantastic weekend of cross country ski racing. The 2026 Festival will again be a stand-alone popular racing event, with techniques and distances for racers of all ages and abilities. Saturday brings the traditional classic Craftsbury Marathon, with short and long course options for open, college, and high school racers and a short course tour for BKL skiers and chaperones. We hope to have a 15k loop, allowing for a 45k long race and a 30k short race for the classic race on Saturday and 30k or 15k for the freestyle race on Sunday.
The best skiers in New England return to the trails of the Craftsbury Outdoor Center for a three-day weekend of ski racing. Day one on Friday features the top collegiate athletes in the region contesting a classic sprint. Day two, Saturday, combines the EISA college field with NENSA’s Eastern Cup, with everyone racing freestyle individual starts. Day three, Sunday, is another classic sprint, this time featuring the Eastern Cup field.
The Outdoor Center is excited to again welcome the fastest skiers in North America to the Northeast Kingdom to wrap up the 2025/2026 race season. With three national championships on the line in the classic sprint (Friday), club relay (Saturday), and freestyle mass start (Sunday), the racing is sure to be exciting. Whether you want to compete or just watch the power and grace as some of the world’s best athletes tackle the challenging race trails at the Center, we hope you will join us in March.

Rollerski racing returns to the paved trails of the Northeast Kingdom with the 2025 Lost Nation Roll. We are switching things up a little bit this year to make things safer for all racers. The event will still be approximately 10km of individual start skate racing, but we are going to cap the field and change the schedule to keep things as safe and controlled as possible.
Sometimes days that are no good for any one thing are perfect to do all the things. The fabled quadrathlon returns to Craftsbury.
