WESTCASTLE SKI CLUB
Fall 2009
Hi Folks,
Wow, from warm to cold - winter is here. COP opens this weekend
for skiing. It is hard to
believe that the 2009/10 season is upon us. FIS, K1 & K2
athletes need to be registered by Oct 15th. The 2009/10
registration forms are available from the registration page.
Nancy Greene, Banditos, & Freeride registration deadline is
December 1st.
Keep thinking snow! Some
of our athletes have spent time
in Oregon and are hoping to be in Colorado by late October. Three of
the coaches made a run down Huckleberry on October 4th. Time to
keep doing the snow dance.
We've had good success recruiting for next
year's coaches as well. Most of our Nancy Greene coaches are
returning and all of our race coaches are ex-Castle Mountain racers.
We now have a new program called Banditos - this expands on and
builds on the old J4 program for 9 & 10 year olds. For more
info see the registration page. A huge thank
you to our Sponsors
this past season - without you, we couldn't make it.
