competitive ski racing at Antoine Mountain in Mattawa, Nipissing MPP Vic Fedeli
announced today.
Fedeli announced a total of $63,400 for the North Bay Ski Racing Club as training for
weekend races at Laurentian Ski Hill got under way.

such as gates, timing equipment, fencing and ski tuning equipment.
That in turn will enable the club’s competitive team to train and host races at Antoine
Mountain.

will be used in this fashion, providing training and competitive opportunities for athletes
here in Nipissing. My congratulations go out to all those who’ve helped make this a
reality and it’s a particularly great day for the town of Mattawa.” said Fedeli.
