First Day 2014

First Day Of Practice

I hope everyone is super excited for the first day of practice! I'm looking forward to seeing all the new faces and those of our returning skiers tomorrow. We have some high drama in the weather department. We're going to get a little taste of winter tomorrow.  Everything is really up in the air right now. Plan on going outside for a bit, we will more then likely spent most of our practice indoors tomorrow. We will meet in Room 41 at Tech at 3:45ish. Same place as parent/student meeting. Dress for some outside fun and also wear or bring shorts and a T for inside practice.

If you haven't turned in your money and your name is not on my roster you will not be allowed to practice.

Quick overview of Day 1:

South students can take PS-20 over to Tech. First bus that departs from South.

Everyone should check a locker out for the season. There will be a PE teacher or coach giving locker assignments out.

We will meet  in Room 41 just down the hall from the boys locker room for practice. 

I'll cover some basics and then we'll get to the fun stuff.

Remember those layers and don't forget gloves, they are easily overlooked.

Most students get picked up outside of door 6 at the conclusion of practice.

The week ahead. Due to the high moisture content of the warm wet snow grooming probably won't take place Monday. The trails would likely ice up like a skating rink once the temps drop if groomed to early. The plan is for grooming Tuesday, which likely means we could get on snow Wednesday for sure, Tuesday if they groom early. However, if we don't get a high enough snow total all bets are off. If the snows thin and you don't have rock skis you will likely damage your new or good skis. Not worth the risk if you only have one set! 

See everyone tomorrow!
