Dear U12 and U10 Families,
Hope this finds you well! What an awesome weekend of racing for the U12s this past weekend! The boys had an amazing day at Pico and the girls at Okemo, plus U12 Parker Romeo raced at Piche’s in NH.
Results are linked below, but I did want to offer a special shout out to the four who took home some hardware in the Tri-Council GS races, racing up against the entire state! Hayden Ho was 6th and Lucca Leone was 10th for boys – Pico Results
Zoey Berk was 2nd and Annie Doolittle was 9th for girls – Okemo Results
Also a shout out to Parker Romeo for placing 14th in the SL at Piche’s – Piche’s Results
This Weekend:
Saturday 3/22: Devo Olympics! It’s a tradition of fun and silly on-snow games and contests all during our regular training blocks. Twin tips or SL skis (no armor).
Sunday 3/23: Panel and Tall Gate SL for U10s and U12s – U12s should wear armor and there will be tall gates set with the intention of introducing U10s to tall gates, so if your U10 has armor, please have them wear it. If they don’t, it’s OK, they can ski around the gates without blocking and/or ski panels.
Last Look Ahead:
3/29: End of the Year celebration…Kid v Parent Dual Race and Awards. Kid v Parent Dual 9:30 – 11:30, Pizza Party 11:30 at the Yurt, Awards at 12/12:15pm
3/30: Training at Okemo TBD (regular schedule) OR Killington Memorial Race for U10 and U12s – register HERE (there is a waitlist at this point) – last day of the program!
OMS Spring SL Step Up Camp, April 2-4:
Okemo Mountain School is hosting a Spring SL Step Up Camp for any U10 – U14 athletes looking to get a jump on next season by adding in some extra days this spring. This is a great opportunity for second year U10s to get some time in tall slalom gates before moving up to U12s. Camp will run April 2 – 4 and it is possible to register for just a single day. Learn more and register HERE.
Thanks!
Mariel
