Are you enjoying this weather? I hope so, enjoy it while you can but in a few weeks you will be back on the slopes enjoying the cold weather with great snow at Mountain High.

We will meet as usual, check-in and then break up in small groups with the goal is to get our ski legs back in shape. We will concentrate on safety and having fun.
More information will be coming your way as we get nearer to December 19th. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

This will be a special day just for YOU! We will meet at Mountain High West, check in, hit the snow at 9:30 am and ski/ride till noon. We will end this special event with a luncheon. More information will be coming.
Don’t forget your skis/snowboards tuned and waxed so you will be ready to go this ski season.

Final STARS Clinic for the 2012 Season

Good Afternoon STARS:
What a day we had today! Beautiful blue skies and warm temperatures and the snow was soft but workable for all our Senior Ski and Snowboarders.
We had 28 Senior STARS come out for our last clinic and from all of the instructors and myself, everyone seemed to have a great time! As I was skiing around to the different groups; there was a lot of skiing and riding today, which means there has been a lot of improvement with YOU Seniors during the 11 weeks of the STARS clinics.
Not only did we have a fabulous time on the snow, but we finished it off with a fantastic luncheon! A lot of photos were taken out on the snow and during the luncheon, so don't forget to go to http://seniorprogramstars.blogspot.com/ to check them all out.
The Senior Program STARS has been lots of fun this season. We averaged about 31 Seniors each week and this was an increase of about 29% from last year. WOW!! Everyone should feel very proud of this accomplishment. You STARS are great ambassadors for Mountain High. Please keep up the good work and continue to get the word out for next season.
Don't forget your evaluation of our program.
Please email two responses to me during this next week:
(1) What is one thing that we did very well?
(2) What did not go well or something that we can improve on?
Take a minute to think about it, and please email me your thoughts.
Until next season...Have a great summer and we will....
Ski ya later!!
Bill
