Winter 2012 Progams
Grades K-8 Program Recreational Program
7 weeks of skiing starting the week of January 2, 2012
Program is Mon-Thurs beginning at 3:30PM and concluding as it gets dark. *Skiers choose which days work best for their family. Some come all four days, others just one or two. We do ask that you let us know via the online sign-up which days you plan to attend.
$30 online; $35 if you wait for Club Night.
Middle School Team (new for this year!)
Open to students from all area schools, grade 5-9. The team will meet Mon-Wed in December 3:30-4:30 (dryland training assuming no snow) with training supervised by Paul Begley, Caroline Mathes, and Pat Cote.
Then January 2- February 18 Tuesday through Friday 3:30 to dark. It is expected that participants will come to all practices with similar expectations of attendance that you would find in other teams for athletes in that age group.
Team is coached by Kaitlyn Bernard who volunteered with our club program last season. Kaitlyn has NCAA racing experience as part of the Colby College team, participated in Maine Winter Sports Center’s strong community program in Fort Kent, Maine as a younger skier, and we’re really lucky to have her coaching this brand new team!
Coaching internships are available for students in Grade 10-College who are willing to commit at least one consistent afternoon per week to the program.
$70 online; $75 if you wait for Club Night.
Women’s Group
Meets weekly at noon at Quarry Road. Stay tuned for details.

Link to Lease Skis - cost $50. Be sure to check “pick-up” option to avoid shipping charges, and…
All Central Maine Ski Clubbers will pick up their skis at the same time at our “Club Nights” Wednesday November , but this year we must require that you lease directly from NENSA’s website at www.nensa.net/skis
WHY? The program has gotten extremely popular region-wide and NENSA can’t guarantee that they’ll have skis for you unless you order, pay and reserve online. (Be sure to select “Will Pick Up” option so you don’t have to pay for shipping.) Please follow sizing instructions VERY carefully.
Please note that skis are only available for skiers up to 5’5″ tall and shoes up to size 44 European (about size 10.) Because of ski manufacturer restrictions, NENSA is unable to lease larger “adult-sized” skis. Once a skier is taller than 5’5″ or has feet larger than size 10, we recommend purchase through LL Bean, Joseph’s, or other outlets.
Please choose to sign up online. The club is 100% volunteer driven and we’d much rather spend time skiing than shuffling paperwork!
(Note: NENSA provides liaibility insurance, coaches education, and other resources that are critical to our program. Membership is required of all participants and all who lease skis.)
