Giving the youth of the Northwest Arctic a chance to experience the sport of cross-country skiing is the goal of NANANordic, a Teck-sponsored program that brings some of the world’s best Nordic skiers to Alaska to teach students from Kindergarten to grade 12 how to cross-country ski. The program, which aims to encourage active lifestyles year-round, is delivered in cooperation with local schools – and, after each session is complete, NANANordic also donates the ski equipment used during the program to participating schools. So far, more than 1,500 students have participated in the program.
