Snow Striders
Again
this year, the Wausau Nordic Ski Club sponsored the Snow Striders
program. Approximately 70 kids participated in this program, that
was offered over a five week period. This year we had kids ages 3
through 10 participating, and we were able to offer both instruction of
both classic and skate techniques. The focus this year was on the
use of ski games (tag, sharks and minnows, scooters, obstacle courses,
etc) to develop balance and agility on skis. Angel and I were very
pleased with the level of energy and participation from the kids in this
program. We would like to thank all volunteer coaches,
parents, and the staff at the Nine Mile Chalet for there assistance this
season. It is always nice to end a program, with both the kids and
parents asking for more. ~ Scott Anderson Coordinator
