The Alpine Team is a group that promotes and trains
young skiers in the sport of downhill racing. New
participants need to be able to turn and stop. This is a
learn-to-race program rather than a beginner ski
program.
Fee: The program fee is $70 if paid by January 2
or $75 thereafter. This fee does not include lift
tickets.
Practices: Practice will be held on Saturdays
from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. beginning on January 2,
2010. Coaches will be made up of the Brainerd Warriors
High School Downhill Team. Participants and coaches will
meet at 1:00 p.m. in front of the Ski Patrol Building.
Helmets are required for all races at practice and
races.
Races: Races will be held on Sundays beginning on
January 3, 2010. Again, remember helmets are required.
Race bibs will be provided by the hosting hill.
Attending races is not required.
Ski Gull's local race is scheduled for January 24.
Please plan to attend and participate. We are in need of
registration help, timing officials, race set up, timing
assistants, course breakdown, general helpers, and
several pans of bars/cookies. We'll have treats and
awards for everyone!
USSA: USSA offers a "try out" program. If you have
questions regarding this program, please contact High
School Mike Stone.
Parents: Parental Support is welcomed and needed
for the success of our local race club. Those interested
in helping with the team should contact Jim Hutchison at
218-764-2630 or Jeff Aga at 218-963-4545. |
