STARS Clinic 1/28/15

A spring day greeted 34 seniors today for our 4th Clinic of the season. Inspite of the spring conditions the snow was very good, especially on top of the mountain.
Before we hit the snow a history of Mountain High was delivered by George Dynes, Senior Certified Instructor and was well received by everyone. After our group photo we broke up into our groups and hit the slopes for our 2 1/2 hour clinic. After the clinic I noticed the Instructors and Seniors were having lunch at the Foggy Google and just enjoying the weather and the companionship. Next week clinic should be a repeat of today. Good snow and a great time for Seniors and Instructors. A BIG THANK YOU to all Seniors for attending today and we are looking forward to our 5th Clinic next week on Wednesday, February 4th at 9:00 am at the West Resort.

STARS Clinic 1-14-15


We could not have picked a better day for the 2nd STARS Clinic of the season. Mid 40's today with a blanket of new snow from our snowmakers. We had 46 Seniors take part and we introduced 6 NEW Seniors to our program. We had an indoor clinic by Ron Parody and John Ward on how to tune and wax your skis and board. Several questions where asked by our Seniors and then we hit the snow for our STARS clinic.

Next week should be a lot of the same with the weather in the mid 40's and if the low temps continue to be in the 20's we should have some NEW snow to ski and ride on.

Don't forget to check out all our pictures from the day at seniorprogramstars.blogspot.com

Everyone got through registration without a hitch, we updated all of you on how we can grow our program and, greeting from management and at 9:30 we hit the snow.

Comments from our seniors and instructors were very positive and the weather and snow was our greatest asset today. We had great coverage and it looks like we will be able to make snow later on in the week. 

We had the privilege in meeting some wonderful NEW seniors to our program. Thanks to all seniors who came today! I know this is going to be a great Senior Program STARS season.
