The Blue Mountain Nordic Club is celebrating the 4th year of our Nordic ski program for kids 4-17 years old. We will meet once a week, on Thursdays (5:00-6:00 pm) at Meacham Divide Nordic Ski Area during January and February. Skiers will be placed into one of 3 groups, by age and ability to learn classic skiing technique. We are again able to lend skis to those who need them for the winter season.
Cost is $25 for 8 lessons. Proceeds go to BMNC to offset costs for kids’ skis, volunteer instructors, and to organize a fun race and BBQ at the end of the season.

Dear La Grande School District Families, Staff, and Community,
Please be advised that all schools will be closed on Thursday, November 7, 2025.
This decision was made to support our role as host of the OSAA 1A/2A Volleyball State Championships. Due to the large number of visiting teams, fans, and officials, we anticipate significant parking and traffic congestion around the high school, Central elementary and La Grande middle school campuses. Closing for the day will ensure safe and efficient access for all guests, volunteers, and event operations.
We shall reschedule this school day to take place on June 5, 2026.
We appreciate your understanding and support as La Grande proudly welcomes schools from across Oregon to this exciting state championship event!
