Ski & Snowboard Reflections

February 16, 2017

​The weather can influence so much that we do in our communities and over the past four weeks many of our students were able to see the best and worst of our weather conditions. This past Thursday was in the middle with warmer temperatures and some rain but overall the weather was cooperative as our 90 plus students hit the slopes for the last time on our Thursday events.  Their previous two days were blessed with clear skies, cold air and at times crystal chunky snow, but, last Thursday they attacked the slopes with energy and enthusiasm in order to battle through the inclement rain weather. Kids returned to the lodge smiling, sporting rosy cheeks and dripping water from every point on their clothes. One parent suggested that we squeeze the water out of the mitts and create our own "Wet Mitt Tea." All in all the kids used their time wisely and enjoyed an extended day of snow runs while the team of teachers and parent volunteers organized the traditional Last Day Pizza Dinner which sent wafting aromas throughout the site drawing many students and strangers to the site of the party which was being managed by Ms. Beauregard and her trusty band of volunteers.

This is a very special club as it asks kids to build the trust capacities with their adult supervisors and it requires them to show mature decision making as they travel with their partner through open slopes with the freedom to explore the lovely terrain parks and rope tows depending upon their skill levels.
