Fall Fridays

Jackrabbit and Racing Team age skiers are invited to pre-season activities starting October 17th from 3:30 – 5:00 at Mills Riverside Park in Underhill, and happens every Friday until the winter program begins.  There is no fee for this program lead by MNC coaches and parents.  Newcomers are welcome and parents are encouraged to help out as well. Kids will engage in activities designed to challenge them, improve agility, balance, strength and overall fitness in a high energy and fun environment. This is a perfect opportunity for our young skiers to make new friends and get to know their coaches before winter.

We’ve had an excellent fall of training (aside from a miserably cold and rainy bike ride last Saturday). The foliage is looking awesome and the skiers are having some fun while working very hard.
