STARS Clinic 2/29/12

Hi STARS:

What a beautiful day we had today at the Senior Program STARS clinic. 8 inches of new snow, crystal clear blue skies and 33 Seniors to experience the 9th clinic of the STARS season. With the 33 Seniors today and throughout the past nine weeks we have seen a total of 276 Seniors participate in our STARS program. That is an average of 30.67 Seniors each week.

In our first year we averaged 15 Seniors and in our 2nd year, 22 Seniors. We are averaging 30.67 Seniors this year, so that is an increase of 28 percent from last year.

I want to thank all the Seniors that completed the short survey today. I can see by the responses that the Senior Program STARS purchase several different Mt High products each and every time you visit Mt High. Not only are you coming to the STARS clinics, you are purchasing season passes, bringing friends, sons, daughters and grandchildren to Mt High. Your grandchildren are our next skiers and snowboarders and we THANK YOU for believing in us and making Mt High a great experience for your family and friends.

Here is our group picture from today and also all the other pictures from today's clinic.


Ski ya next Wednesday,

STARS:

All I can say is don't miss tomorrow's clinic, because the snow is the BEST we have had this year!! Don't forget to RSVP to our STARS clinic.!

Ski ya tomorrow,

Good Evening STARS:

Just a reminder about our SENIOR STARS CLINIC this coming Wednesday, February 29 at 9:00 am. We will be at the WEST RESORT due to the closure of the East Resort during the week.

Plan to get there a little early so you can purchase your ticket at 8:00 am so you will be booted up by 9:00 am. Then proceed to meet with your instructors and me inside the Big Pines lodge.

We plan to hit the slopes at 9:30 am sharp!

The weather will be cloudy with the high temperatures in the 30's. Hopefully, conditions will be right to make snow, Monday and Tuesday to increase our snow coverage. We will have another great STARS day this WEDNESDAY!

Please RSVP prior to our clinic.


Thanks....

STARS Clinic 2/22/12

WOW..WOW…WOW…. this is all I have to say about our Seniors TODAY! There were 36 Seniors that skied and rode today in beautiful 55-degree weather. The snow was real good in the beginning of the clinic and soften a bit toward the end. Upper Mountain had consistent snow and it was sure a lot of fun seeing 36 smiles on the faces of our Seniors and of course our Senior STARS Instructors too.

This was our 8th clinic of the season and we just have 5 clinics left.
We had the privilege to WELCOME 9 new Seniors to our STARS Program today! Most of their comments were “can’t wait till next week”. We can’t wait to have you back too!


Ski ya next Wednesday,

STARS Clinic 2/15/12

WOW!! What a morning we had for our 7th Senior STARS clinic of the season. We had 26 Seniors take part in a cold and snowy lesson. We received about 3 inches of snow and it is still snowing this afternoon. Looks like our conditions are really improving so we will have excellent coverage for next Wednesday’s clinic.

I want to thank all the Seniors for hanging in there on a cold and snowy morning here at Mt. High. Several Seniors got together with their instructor and finished off the morning by having lunch together in the Big Pines Lodge.

I can’t wait for next week clinic, it will be the BEST!!

STARS Clinic 2/8/12

Senior STARS program today was a great success! We had 27 Senior STARS participate in today’s clinic. Seniors were able to ski and ride on the NEW snow we receive yesterday and today! All of us had a super day and we left with not only new skills but new friendships as well. This is the second week in a row I happened to see some instructors using video to look at your skiing. What a treat that is to see yourself improve in the Senior STARS Program.

Enjoy the group photo and also don’t forget to checkout your group photo with your instructor too. http://seniorprogramstars.blogspot.com/

STARS Clinic 2/1/12

Good Afternoon STARS!
Just a great day we had today at Mountain High for our 5th STARS clinic of the season. We had 27 Seniors come up and enjoyed the sunshine and corduroy snow. What a super morning to ski and ride!

As we always do at 9:00 am we continue to develop our learning partnership, (Instructor and Senior) as we have our continental breakfast. This is a very important part in the process of the learning process to connect the instructor and senior so when we hit the snow we have built a trust relationship together so we are safe, having fun, and then we can improve on your riding and skiing skills.

At exactly 9:30 am we took our group photo and then headed up the chair for our clinic.

It was sure great to get to know our 6 NEW Seniors today. Talking with all of them, it looked like they had a great time too.

Here is the group photo and also the link to the other photos of the day. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email me.
