Mt. Abram Race Team 2012/13
The 2012/13 season is almost here! With snow guns putting down a great base and
the promise of snow in the future, the Mt. Abram Race Team will begin training
on Saturday 12/22/12 at 8:30 AM.
The 2012 Christmas race camp will begin at 8:30 AM on
Thursday 12/27 and will continue through Friday and Saturday with plans for a
fun race at the end of the camp. The
Christmas camp is included in the 2012/13 season program so we hope to see all
of our athletes attend! The focus for
the camp will be early season fundamentals as outlined in the US Ski
Association Skills Quest program. Skills
Quest is being used for everyone from the youngest U8 through and including the
US Ski Team.
In addition to the experienced Mt. Abram coaching staff we
will have additional help from some top collegiate ski racers. These young coaches are skiing at the highest
level and will be sharing their considerable experience with our camp athletes.
Afternoon activities will include a tuning clinic sponsored
by Swix and Best Tunes of Bethel. This
clinic will take place on Thursday after skiing and will be hands on providing
our athletes (parents invited too) the opportunity to learn from the best.
After skiing on Friday we will host a panel discussion and
question/answer on what is it like to ski in college. Our collegiate coaches will discuss how many
opportunities there are to ski in college and how to plan your training and
studies to reach this goal.
Both afternoon activities will take place at the West Side
Lodge, a short car or shuttle ride away from the main base area. All family members are welcome to join in.
We look forward to seeing you next week! If you have any questions please give Race
Director Matty Leach a call at 207-875-5000.
