The Midwest Winter Games is a new winter festival for youth & juniors ages 16 and under at Theodore Wirth Park! The Loppet & Minnesota Youth Ski League are teaming up to bring the next generation of winter athletes together for a day of racing, playing, and celebrating all things winter! Whether you’re ready to race your heart out in a timed ski race or dive into some seriously silly snow-filled shenanigans, there’s something for every young winter enthusiast.

Choose from timed 1k, 2k or 3k classic cross-country ski events or the untimed Fishscale Frenzy for your newest skiers. For the racers who want to rip: we’ll have a timed skate ski cross race for kids ready to SEND IT! Then keep the fun going with winter activities for the whole family including ski tug-of-war, ski limbo, snowball target toss, shovel races, indoor crafts and community art.

Join us for a day of outdoor play at Theodore Wirth Park!
