Lake Elmo: New ski center officially opens Friday - TwinCities.com

An open house for the Nordic Center at Lake Elmo Park Reserve will be at 4 p.m. Friday, Jan. 11.

The event will be the official opening of the center, which is at the trail head of 5.4 miles of lighted cross-country ski trails. The LED lights for the trails were installed in the fall of 2011.

The new building serves as a warming house for skiers. It includes rest rooms, changing rooms, vending machines and a fireplace.

The $1.3 million project was funded by the three-eighths of 1 percent sales tax approved by voters through the Clean Water Land and Legacy Amendment.

The reserve is at Washington County roads 19 and 10 in Lake Elmo, one mile north of Interstate 94. The park entrance fee will be a waived during the event.
