Hey everyone,

Just got word that due to the weather, the Sundown GS start has been moved up to 8am and the Southington SL start has been moved up to 8:30am!

Please make sure to adjust your alarm clocks to get to registration on time.

Also, make sure to fill in your racers “Biography” as Olympian Doug Lewis will be making the announcements about each racer at Southington! You can access the “Athletes Biography” under “Registration Conditions” under U14 Championships, Tri-State Alpine Ski Championships on Adminskiracing.com.

Finally be sure to sign up for extra Banquet tickets on Adminskiracing.com. The “keynote speaker” will be 2-time Olympian Doug Lewis!

Looking forward to seeing you this weekend,

Coach Pat

Hi everyone,

Thanks in advance for your patience as I have news that our training will now be SL on Race Slope on Saturday. Please meet and warm up with Alex, Chris and Sonia at 8:30am. Then head over to the Race Slope to inspect the course. We will set up timing and run the 1st two runs like a race.

On Sunday, we will run GS on Lower Alley Cat. Please meet at the bottom of the Quad to warm up and head over to inspect and run the course. If available, we will set up timing as well.

Looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend.

Fencing needs to be removed, rolled, tied, dragged down and then stored at the finish shack at the bottom right of Lower Alley Cat.
