SWSA Programs and Efforts
SWSA provides instruction for jumpers from 6 years old and older. Currently we have jumpers using our 20 and 30 meter hills and hope to have some using our new 65 meter hill in 2011.
We offer a camp during the Christmas break for children interested in learning to jump and for children that participate year after year. This years dates for the camp will be Monday December 27th and Tuesday the 28th. The camp runs from 9am to 3pm and will include a mini tourney on Tues afternoon. The cost for the camp is $30.00 per skier and includes lunch on both days. For those new to the camp we ask that you bring a helmet, down hill skis and boots and we will take care of the rest.
For those skiers that wish to continue we will require that they join the US Ski and Snowboard Association as a competitor. This will cover the skiers insurance not only at our facility but at other venues that they may compete at.
Following this years camp we will provide instruction on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6pm to 7:30pm. Saturday and Sunday the times will be from 9am to 11am and 1pm until 3pm both days.
As the winter continues we will be attending competitions throughout New England.SWSA skiers have competed in New Hampshire, Vermont, and Lake Placid New York in the past few years.The experience of going to different venues will be a great experience for new jumpers and also allows them to meet a whole new new group of friends.
Jumping also continues during the summer. Lake Placid N.Y. offers jumping on plastic as well as Lebanon N.H. SWSA skiers have attended 3 camps in Lake Plaid this summer and have improved their skills dramatically by training on a year round basis.
If you are interested in taking part in the camp or attending practices in the upcoming winter feel free to contact us and we will try to answer any questions you may have.
