Calling women of all ages. Sisters, mothers, daughters, grandmothers and your best girlfriends!

The Alaska Ski for Women 4-K ski race will take place this Sunday at Kincaid Park. Funds raised go toward local charities to fight domestic abuse.

Timed race waves begin at 10:30 a.m., followed by a costume parade at 11:45 a.m. and an untimed Party Wave at 12:30 p.m.
