We return to Wilmot and all the high intensity of lessons and training they gave to offer. We’ll have Terrain Park lessons for advanced skiers and Movement Analysis for everyone. Remember Wilmot is cashless and does require a Winter Activities Waiver to participate. Earlier return times will apply as well.
While the one missing element may be a bit more sun, the forecast sounds like a dream with a 35-degree high temperature and partly cloudy. We know it will be a crowded day at Alpine, so we encourage everyone to take the time to practice what they have been learning over the past few weeks. This will be a great day to work with our newly minted G skiers and snowboarders who are learning the art of movement analysis in preparation for becoming fully fledged ski and snowboard instructors. I will caution everyone that the Terrain Park is off-limits to skiers level C and below. And, leave your poles back in the racks instead of at the Terrain Park.
Be certain to read the new eMail blast under the More Info tab if you did not receive it in your email. Important reminders about the Winter Activity Waiver needed for Wilmot and the other idiosyncracies of being at Wilmot are covered. It will be a colder weekend, so gators and facemasks should be packed as well as warm gloves. I hope not see anyone just wearing a sweatshirt as opposed to a jacket.
Seasonally, we transition from Alpine to Wilmot in January and then back to Alpine towards the end of the season. We prefer to have continuity with our instruction program, and skipping around from place to place doesn't give us the opportunity to forge a relationship with the ski and snowboard instructors the way we have in the past.
The message is clear. We don't have enough support for a trip on Saturday, December 28th. On top of a lack of participants, rain is also forecasted with balmy weather. Sounds like a bad day all around. So we are canceling our last December trip. Since I scheduled 15 trips this season, I don't feel bad about a loss of one or two as our usual season is twelve.
