Wednesday, January 8 race at Fryeburg

The team will be leaving school on Wednesday after lunch, heading to the race in Fryeburg. All skiers should speak with the teachers ahead of time of the afternoon classes they will be missing to make arrangements for missed class work and/or assignments.

The van will arrive back at school around 6:00ish. Skiers can call from the road when a more exact return time is known.

Remember that Fryeburg has no indoor facilities, so skiers should be sure to bring warm clothes for before and after their race.

What to Bring:

• Waxed SKATE skis, boots and poles
• Race suit
• Warm clothes for before and after your race
• Hat/gloves/etc.
• Lunch/snacks
• Water bottle

Race Suits:
Race suits will be handed out on Saturday morning.

Upcoming Telstar race

Next Saturday, January 4 (before we return to school), the Telstar Relays will be happening in Bethel.  The Telstar Relays are always fun, with mixed (boys and girls) skate relay teams and a few individuals if we don't divide up evenly, along with the crazy tights raffle at the end. The van will be leaving Desert Rd at 8:30 and returning around 4:00-5:00. Since this is not a WMC race, Telstar is an optional race for our skiers, however we do hope many will attend.  In order to have accurate race registration and plan relay teams, as well as ensure transportation, every team member needs to drop Susan an email (highschool@mainecoastwaldorf.org) by Wednesday (January 1) morning, letting her know one way or the other whether they plan on racing on Saturday and, if they will be racing, if they will be riding the van or have their own transportation.

Ski Camp - Delayed Start By One Hour

Due to extremely icy conditions in some areas this morning, we want to give the roads an extra hour to warm up and the ice to melt, so will now depart at 11:00 instead of 10:00.

We are asking that one person from each family (either skier or parent) shoot Susan an email (highschool@mainecoastwaldorf.org), letting me know you are all set to head out at 11:00 instead of 10:00. If Susan doesn't hear from you by 9:00, she will be making phone calls.

Ski Camp - December 2019

~ Updated Monday, December 23 ~

Due to an unfortunate lack of snow, ski camp is relocating to the Mount Washington Valley area of New Hampshire. The info below has been updated with new-New Hampshire details, so make sure to read everything carefully (especially the updated packing list).

SKI CAMP INFO …
Probably the most important thing to convey is that everyone should be sure to have the right gear for ski camp. Having the right clothes (layers are super important) will make for a much more pleasant experience for the week. If anyone thinks they are missing some critical piece of gear, do reach out to John ahead of time and he will help in getting/loaning you what you need.
