Ages 6-12 (born in 2002-1996 )
Our youngest athletes' first experience in the Club will provide a foundation for

stress the importance of having fun while learning mountain safety and new skills
through play, games and mountain exploration. Free skiing will be emphasized.
Participants should be able to put on their own ski equipment, load and ride the lift
alone, and ski at an intermediate level.This means all athletes ages 7 and above must ski
in a parallel stance. 6 year old participants must be able to stop on their own and have
two previous seasons on snow. Participants are welcome and encouraged to
race in club series races that do not conflict with their program dates. Average
athlete to coach ratio will be 6 to 1. Athletes are arranged in groups based on skill,
speed and social needs. Six year olds (birth year 2003) will ski in their own groups.
