Hope everyone had a great Fourth of July! Just wanted to wrap up the blog with some concluding words from the camp staff. We are all very happy with how the last couple of days went. Our final day on snow we trained three different kinds of slalom courses: a brush course, paneled slalom, and a normal slalom course. The weather was perfect blue skies, the lift lines were small, and the snow was nicely firm. It was clear that all the campers have made great improvements throughout the camp. The progress could not have been made without the impressive mental toughness of our campers. We are all very proud of this great group of kids and hope to see them again next year (or killing it out on the slopes this ski season)!

Day 9

Back on slalom skis today. We spent the morning working on slalom drills. In the afternoon we went to welches school and did circuits, consisting of core, soccer, kickball, and agility. After some down time, we headed to Adam's house for pizza and a dance party!
