Hello KOPSC members !
Monday Night Learn to Ski program from EPSC
Each winter, EPSC club members are given an opportunity to participate in the Council's FREE Learn to Ski program, which promotes the safe enjoyment of skiing and provides newcomers an inexpensive way to learn the sport. The instructors are also members of EPSC clubs, are certified ASIA or PSIA instructors, and they volunteer their time to teach. The 2 hour lessons are free and the lift tickets and rentals are available at a discount.
Student skill levels range from "never evers" to those making open parallel turns, and students are grouped into classes based on their ability level. So even "terminal intermediates" can benefit from these lessons. Over the course of six Monday nights, student’s progress into a structured curriculum, building skills and confidence from week to week.
Registration forms for these lessons are available on the EPSC (easternpaskicouncil.org) website and a link on our website. Current club membership cards must be shown, and participants must sigh in at the registration table in the front lobby prior to each lesson.
Lessons are held at:
Spring Mountain,
757 Spring Mount Road,
Schwenksville, PA.
This season's program begins on Monday night, January 9, 2012.
NOTE: A similar lesson program for snowboarding will be available if enough snowboard instructors volunteer. If you are qualified to teach snowboarding, would like to become an amateur instructor, or are willing to be a lesson aid, call JoAnne Landis at 215-234-0358 for details.
If you have further questions, please contact:
Cheryl Brokaw or 215-643-5345
