Summer Nordic Programs

School is almost out, which means it's time to shred the pavement and do some jumping on plastic!

The NYSEF Nordic Kids Summer is jammed packed with fun and ski skill prep for the winter of 2012 - so don't miss out on ski jumping the K18 hill, learning to rollerski on wheels from NYSEF alumni & US biathlete Tim Burke, frisbee, soccer, paintball biathlon and hanging out with the USA Ski Jumping Team!
Check out the details here: NYSEF Nordic Kids Summer 2011!

For those of you looking to make the flight from the East to Utah next March for the USSA Junior Olympics, then get your XC ski training going this summer in Lake Placid – July 12-16 at the Olympic Training Center! Explore the Adirondacks and train in the same environment that the US Ski Team calls home in the fall. The sessions will provide an opportunity to get solid training hours in, work on technique and intensity sessions. Cost is $425.00 and includes coaching and room/board at the OTC. Deadline to sign-up is June 24. A deposit of $180.00 is due to NYSEF by June 24. Requirements: Athletes must have at least one summer of rollerskiing experience to attend and be able to ski for 2 hours. Athletes must provide their own classic and skate rollerskis. Rollerskis must be in proper working order. Athletes are required to wear helmets and reflective vests/clothing for rollerskiing.  Athletes must have a current 2011/12 USSA membership.
