In Appreciation of our outstanding team of four terrific Volunteer Groomers,
Bob James, Dave Turner, Chris May, Blain Horsley
And Sharon Turner who issues the grooming reports,
to the eager and appreciative members of the Glenelg Nordic Ski Club
Presented for the Annual General Meeting, April 27, 2013
SNOW ANGELS
All of us here know those Groomers from Grey
They’re simply the best, I’ve heard so many say
Oh, I think it’s magic – perhaps even voodoo
What our Angel Boys can do with their ski-doo
So that we lucky folks can just play
—-
From far and wide all the skiers do come
To ski Glenelg’s trails and have some great fun
Not one soul could ever complain
When Bob, and Dave, and Chris and Blain
Have finished their tasks and said … “Yes, Sharon,We’re Done!”
—-
Now, we all know the ski days in a week can be seven
But when there’s lots of good snow, I’d wish for eleven
So don’t even think of visiting Port Elgin
Just come with me and I’ll show you Glenelg ‘n’
Those Nordic Club Trails there that I call “Ski Heaven!”
