Community Group Interested in Organizing After-School Ski and Race Program 5 few local families are a to put eee a ski/race program for kids. The idea is to gather interested students after school and provide them instruction and/or coaching at Wolf Mountain. The target is to have them home in time for dinner. At this time, discussions have centered around three types of programs. First, a six week recreational program would operate o Wednesday afternoons, and culminate in a race on Presidents Day Weekend. Second, families and kids interested in additional development, or improving a ski and race skills, ould participat in development/race program that would have a more extended season. This program could operate on Tuesdays and Thursday afternoons, or nights, depending on interest. The third idea is to revive, onstruct, a Wednesday night race league for adults and interested children. This type of league has considerable interest in other areas and did exist at Nordic in the late 1980’s. Interested parties in any of these programs should contact Terry Davis at 745or e-mail <Terryd@relia.net> All thoughts and ideas will be brought to a gathering of interested families in late October.
