Telemark Enhancement Seminar

Attention all Patrollers - You asked for it, so here it is!!

A 2-day Telemark Enhancement Seminar has been scheduled at Hidden Valley for January 20th and 21st. The cost is $65, which covers the cost of a Level 3 PSIA Tele Instructor and lunches. You must be at least a novice tele skier to participate, but this will be a low pressure event designed to improve the skills of any patroller.

Please contact me at 973-300-0360 or jefhaines@aol.com to register or if you have any questions. Space is limited, so sign up early if you are interested!

Women's Skier Enhancement Seminar

Mark your calendars for February 24, 2007. The NJ Region will be hosting a Women's Skier Enhancement Seminar at Belleayre Mountain in NY.

Yes, we are going out of region! The Eastern Division is encouraging more patrollers to advance their skills to the Senior level and, in that spirit, I arranged for a seminar at a reasonably close area with reliable Senior level terrain and bumps. PSIA examiners will be working with us.

I am still working on the cost, but expect it to be in the neighborhood of $25. The focus will be on developing and refreshing Senior skiing skills, as well as moving beyond Senior. Please contact me at 973-764-1594 or drc@warwick.net if you are interested or have questions.
