This celebration provides us with another wonderful opportunity to enjoy the beauty and diversity of Teton Valley. There are several events for all ages and interests from snowshoe/running races to fat bike races; snow sculpting activities to snow sculpture viewing; snow kite demos to luge demos, and so much more. Saturday presents an evening of dancing, awards and style at the Snow Ball. Childcare for the Snow Ball will be offered at the Dreamchasers facility from 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm for children ages 2 - 11. The cost is $5 per hour/per child, and a multi-child discount will be offered for families of 2 or more at $4 per hour/per child. Dinner will not be provided so please feed your child(ren) prior to dropping them off. Snacks and drinks are welcome if the snacks do not make an excessive mess and the drink has some sort of lid. Also, if your child is sick, please be respectful of the health of others and keep them at home.

WEEKLY FITNESS TIP
This excerpt was taken from the December 2012 issue of Dreamchasers National Newsletter and was written by Julie Bryan
You can bike and run all winter long in Teton Valley. The sport of "snow biking" is growing in participation quickly!
Snow Bikes or "Fat Bikes" are defined as bikes with 3.7 inch or wider tires, the purpose of which is floatation on soft surfaces. The bikes work well on snow machine trails or in groomed cross country skiing areas, on the same track where you see skate skiing. Just make sure it is okay to ride on the skate track first! Most riders use regular or "flat" pedals so that they can use a warmer boot rather than biking shoes. Running is amazing in those same areas as well. You may elect to wear snowshoes or Yaktrax. In areas with a compressed snow trail where you have little fear of sinking, a running shoe with a soft and aggressive tread may be all you need. Check out our store for a wide selection of great running shoes, snowshoes and Yaktrax.

Mexican Carrot Chile Cilantro Soup
4 -5 carrots, washed and sliced

In a large pot over medium heat, saute the onion, garlic, chile, potato and carrot in the olive oil til tender. Add half the cilantro, seasonings, and stir. Saute another 5-6 minutes, then add the stock, heat to boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook 45 minutes.
