Week of Dec. 14

Training week of 12/14/20

 

Hey Skiers,

 

We had a great showing on Saturday at Echo Ridge. The trails were in fabulous condition and everyone looked great with early season skiing!

 

A few reminders…Covid style.  When we group up, remember to keep your “social distance” and make sure buffs are up!  Also, bring your own H20 and Snacks this year!!

 

For weekday skis-bring a headlamp-it gets dark really fast!

 

Exciting news on the coaching front-Ivy Spiegel-Ostrom will be joining our coaching team and will take over some Head Coach duties this winter, she skied with LWSC, and skies with William College for 4 years. She is home this winter after graduating and is excited to be skiing with us.

 

Also please fill out your skiers release for Plain-you can email it anne.plainhardware@gmail.com , For $10 extra, you can get a pass to wear.
