What Every Parent Needs to Know
·
All students will
eat early -around 10:20 a.m.
·
Students and Chaperones will get on the buses at 11:00
a.m. (please be punctual)
·
I am encouraging as many students as possible to sign
up for ski or snowboard lessons!
·
Students and
chaperones will leave the buses and go
to either the ski lodge or the recreation center that houses the pool and game
area
·
There will be a
head count, on the bus, two times
·
Chaperones will
do a head count before, a couple times
during and after the activity together
Skiers and Snowboarders: NEW THIS
YEAR…..BEGINNER SKI AND SNOWBOARD LESSONS!! Please consider signing your child
up to learn to ski or snowboard! It can be a lifelong recreational activity! Students having lessons will meet in the
lodge and be grouped together by ability levels. Instructors will meet students
in the lodge. Students will have
a lesson from 11:15-1:00 p.m. and then be able to practice new skills from
1:00-1:15.
More experienced skiers and snowboarders
will wait together in the lodge, with chaperones, while supervisor Steve Menz
goes to get their lift tickets. Once everyone has their ticket, they will ski
from 11:15 until 1:15.
We NEED
lots of CHAPERONES! Thanks for considering being a chaperone!
Ski and Snowboard Equipment: If your
student is bringing his or her own equipment, please have it at the school in
the morning and at least by 10:00 a.m., as Graham Clegg will be taking them up
in his truck.
Swimmers:
Swimmers need a swim suit, towel and plastic bag for wet suit. We will have a licensed lifeguard at the pool. I will wait to see how many
students are signed up for swimming before deciding how they will be grouped.
In order to save time, I encourage you
to have your child wear his or her bathing suit under his or her clothing.
Snowshoers:We
will bring our snowshoes from Smilie for students and adults who sign up for
snowshoeing. These students and chaperones will meet outside of the recreation
center to plan their walk
We will only cancel if the weather is below 0 (real
feel). Snowshoers, skiers and snowboarders, please dress for cold weather.
Please contact me with any questions! Let’s
have some fun!
