Ski Like Ole Lap-A-Palooza

Ski Like Ole Lapapalooza 102.17km 2023 Event Details

IMPORTANT UPDATE (Dec 28 2023):

DUE TO LACK OF SNOW AND ICY CONDITIONS IN CAMROSE, IN PERSON EVENT HAS BEEN MOVED TO VIRTUAL! EMBRACE YOUR INNER OLE AND REGISTER TO DO SOMETHING VERY UNIQUE AND COOL!

On the last Saturday of the year (Dec 30, 2023), finish your year off with a bang and join us for the 3rd Ski Like Ole Lap-a-palooza. We encourage you – as Ole would – to enjoy the trails with your friends, family and teammates, challenge yourself to do something ridiculous, set a goal (no matter how small or insane it may seem), learn the motivating factor of gummies and feel what it’s like to accomplish something amazing.

Important Ski Like Ole Lapapalooza 2023 update!

•

It’s time to embrace your true inner Ole and get creative! Unfortunately due to lack of snow and dangerously icy conditions on our trails, the in person Camrose #skilikeolelapapalooza2023 event has been moved to a virtual event.

•

We have looked into every alternative including switching the location, which has proved to be very difficult at this time of year under the circumstances.

•

Thankfully we have a HUGE virtual event taking place across the country with people taking part from BC to Nova Scotia and the NWT! We realize not everyone can ski with conditions the way they are, so we invite you to still register and take part in any way you can! On zone 4 when you register you will now have the option to tell us how you will #skilikeole in these weird conditions. Want to ride your horse? Go for it! Want to run? Ride? Skate? Snowshoe? Tally up your km’s, tag @livelikeole in your photos and let’s see how many strange ways we can #skilikeole this year!

•

Ole truly had the most amazing way of making the best of a crappy situation. He was also extremely innovative and had some of the most unique fun ideas. Get together with your friends and just get out and do something awesome. Submit your distance in the google form (emailed out after registration) and let’s see what we all can do!

All registered participants eligible for some wicked prizes from our awesome sponsors!

•

For those of you who do get to ski, we can’t wait to see what you all do! We are now up to people from 13 different clubs across Canada registered! Last year some were close but couldn’t quite clinch Ole’s 102.17km in the time allotment…will anyone be able to snag it this year?

All registered in person and virtual participants will receive an exclusive SKI LIKE OLE decal as well as a chance to win some amazing prizes.
