Hello all, hope your all enjoying spring.
So I have been a little slow this year in getting the year end video done but I do have a preview available! If you want to check it out click here. Please note, if play back is jumpy turn off the HD option.
The final video will be much longer with more pictures and video. If you have any pictures that you would like to see added please send them to me via email. The more pictures the better. The final video will be done when it is done (hopefully before the end of the month).The 2008 Year End movie will be available for download (1080p) and on DVD (480p).
Finally, I will be giving away a couple of DVD’s for free! The catch: you will have to correctly identify coaches in some pictures. Here is a preview…
It’s here, the BIG FINAL EVENT!
This Sunday all club members NG through to J1 are invited to join in on a day of fun, craziness and even a bit of skiing. This will be the day of days this season so don’t miss out.
We will be meeting in the main cafeteria at 9:10. Kids will be put into there prearranged teams that will consist of NGers, K-Stars, K1’s, K2’s and J1’s. Teams will then work together to complete various challenges spread all over the mountain. Teams will be awarded points at each challenge based on how well they work together and of course how quickly they finish.
This Saturday, April 12 the Mount Seymour Ski Club is hosting the 2008 Coast Spring Cup. This is the inaugural year for what we hope will be an annual event replacing the Coast Zone Final usually held at Mount Washington. We are planning a much different event than has been done in the past and over the past month we’ve been hearing huge excitement from all of the zone clubs. We are now expecting about 200 Kinder racers to attend and many more family and friends to come along and take part in our festival.
The Big Final Event has been postponed to Sunday, April 13.The BFE is a day of fun and racing for all Nancy Greene + K-Star skiers and parents we will have a number of obstacle courses set up and all skiers will take part in a massive mountain wide treasure hunt.
The club will also be hosting Zone Finals on the 12th which involves K1 - J1 skiers from the entire Coast Zone. This is an excellent chance for our younger skiers to see the best kinder skiers from our zone in action.Please note that there will not be any training on the weekends leading up to the event.
Hello all,
First there will be no training on Seymour this Tuesday evening or on the weekend. Now to the Sun Peaks info…
Where to meet:
We will be meeting both Friday and Saturday mornings outside of the Bento’s Day Lodge which is located near the base of the Sunburst Express. I will not have an exact time until after the the team captains meeting Thursday evening so please check the hotline Thursday night.
Spring Break is upon us! Sign your young skier up for our Spring Camp; three days of fun race training and ski improvement.
Mornings will be spent working on drills and running various courses. Training will emphasize technical and tactical skill development on and off of the race course. After lunch we will hit the slopes to put the mornings concepts into action through supervised free skiing and maybe the odd snow ball fight.
This past Sunday five Seymour K-Stars took part in the Enchanted Forest Super-G. The race was put on by the Whistler Mountain Ski Club and Whistler Blackcomb and they were kind enough to let us join what is normally an internal event.
Besides the excuse to ski at Whistler this event also gave us the opportunity to compare how our future K1 skiers to Whistlers future K1’s. We did very well.
Come out this Sunday, October 26 for a ride in the Seymour River Valley. We will meet at the start of the LSCR recreation path around 11 AM and will ride to the fish hatchery before looping back via Fisherman’s Trail.
The ride itself will be family friendly and non technical. The loop is nearly 20 km long so come with water and a snack. Parents are welcome and encouraged to come out as well.
Please note that there is no charge for attending. We look forward to seeing you there.
*The weather is not looking so great so we will be postponing the event indefinitely*
