Ariens Nordic Center Hosts Second Annual Masters Nationals and Ariens Biathlon Festival

The second annual Masters National Championships and Ariens Biathlon Festival brought a weekend of racing, community, and celebration to Ariens Nordic Center in Brillion, WI. Under beautiful winter skies, more than 60 participants from across the country gathered for three days of competition at the world-class venue. Athletes toed the line in sprint, mass start, and super sprint formats.

Beyond the racing, the festival atmosphere carried into the lodge, where Ariens Nordic Center hosted Olympic watch parties in support of Team USA competing in Antholz-Anterselva, ITA. Early risers traveled to the lodge for coffee and breakfast ahead of the day’s competition in Brillion. United by a shared love of biathlon, they cheered on the Team USA athletes competing in the men’s sprint, women’s sprint, and pursuit on the world’s biggest stage.

The event once again highlighted Ariens Nordic Center’s growing role as a hub for American biathlon, bringing together athletes of all ages and abilities to compete, connect, and share their love for the sport.
