Week of 1/8 Youth Skiing Update

Youth Skiing Program
It's definitely a January thaw outside but there is still plenty of snow. We will practice at 3:30pm on Tuesday and Thursday this week. As mentioned previously, our meeting point will be at Twin Brook on the Greely Road side. The drop-off point will be at the far side of the Greely Road parking lot. All skiers need to look for the person with the orange vest who will be taking attendance. Skiers will then walk over to the picnic tables behind the back stop to get a name tag. At the end of the practice, the tag needs to be returned to the board where it was retrieved.

Coaches
We have a lot of coaches who have committed to assisting with the program. We will be especially stacked with coaches this week. Please keep up the commitment; we can never have too many coaches. We’ll be sending out a coach schedule next week.

Equipment
If anyone still needs equipment, try these resources:

Play it Again Sports: it’s hit or miss, keep checking, the inventory changes frequently
