Kawartha Nordic ComPassion Relay 2026
The ComPassion Project Relay returns to Kawartha Nordic on Saturday January 31, 2026!
This non-competitive ski relay is a 6-hour event, from 10am - 4pm.
Come out for a fun filled day of skiing, socializing, food, fun, and supporting a great cause. This annual event is now in its fifth year, and together we have raised over $60k for local charities!
This year, we're pulling out all the stops with a goal of raising $26,000 for the six partner organizations of the Wild Rock ComPassion Project!
About the Relay
The Relay is not a traditional relay! There are three loop options (12km, 7km, and 3km), and each skier or team chooses the loop (or loops) they wish to ski. You can ski by yourself, or challenge your co-workers, family or friends as a team.
Skiers can take on the full 6 hour event, or spend a portion of the day on the trails. This event is friendly to all ages, from kids to seniors.
