Session 1 - Our First Dryland Event!

The snow conditions (or lack of!) will be changing our plans for Saturday’s first Bay Nordic event of the season. We won’t be able to ski, however, the plan is to have a “Dryland” (think of it as a dry-run for when we do have snow) session aimed at introducing the kids to some of the fundamental movements of skiing, having fun, and meeting the coaches and fellow members....and of course the hot chocolate and cookies.

Here’s the plan:

- Do the session from 10:00 to 11:30 am...Shortened by 1/2 hour.
- Kids will check in to receive their Name Tag & Group as normal from 9:30 to 9:50 am and gather in their assigned groups to meet the coaches. Kids will receive their Group Assignments at the Check In.
- Mark Ernst and Group Coaches will lead the group on the fundamentals of skiing and some obstacle course work.
- Goals for the session are to give them some basic or more experienced knowledge of skiing and to burn off some energy by keeping them moving!
 
All kids that attend need to bring RUNNING SHOES & POLES (Poles will be available for Session Rentals).
 
We look forward to seeing everyone. We will also be adding the February 11th make up date to the calendar to get on snow some more.


Think Snow!
