Posted

CANTON – Nature Up North is excited to announce the 7th Annual Winterfest Cardboard Sled Races on Feb. 8 from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. at the SUNY Canton Sledding Hill. 

Teams or individuals are invited to enter on sleds they create themselves from cardboard. Each sled must carry one team member. 

Registration is from 10-10:30. 

At 10:30 will be the "parade of sleds" and sled judging, with the races beginning immediately thereafter. Sleds will be judged overall, for special categories, and by division for the fastest time.

Approved materials: Cardboard, duct tape, recycled plastic bags, paint, and glue.

To register ahead of race day visit https://www.natureupnorth.org/form/7th-annual-cardboard-sled-race-r. Or email info@natureupnorth.org with your team name, participant names and grades, and division. 

Rain/weather date of Feb. 11 and 24, 10 a.m.-1 p.m. Any rescheduling will be announced the day before on social media and at natureupnorth.org. The first reschedule will be to the 9th, then the 22nd if poor weather persists.

The SUNY Canton sledding hill is located on the southeast side of campus, between Kennedy Hall and the Footbridges. From downtown Canton, head west on Hwy 68 to SUNY Canton. Turn onto Cornell Drive, and take a right at the first Y toward the river. Turn left on Miller Drive and park in Lot 1. Look for signs to the nearby sledding hill.
