PMRC Programs

The Poley Mountain Racing Club offers programs for all levels of skiers. A detailed description of our programs is outlined below.

Husky Snow Stars Program (Ages 5-10)

The philosophy of the Husky Snow Stars Program is to encourage participation, interaction, and the development of technical skiing skills in an exciting and fun atmosphere without the pressures of intense competition. In this manner, we hope to offer programs that will spark a desire to continue in the great sport of alpine skiing. The objectives of the program are based on the following ideas:

FUN orientation
SAFETY consciousness
SKILL development
FAIR PLAY emphasis

Husky Snow Stars is aimed at 5-10 year olds that are comfortable using the chair lift with limited assistance. The program is offered on Saturdays and/or Sundays from 10am to 3pm breaking at noon for lunch. Program begins the weekend of January 3rd & 4th of 2009.

For further information and to register before December 14, 2008 please contact Dawn Moffet-McLean at 433-8151 or by e-mail at braydawn@nb.sympatico.ca

K1 & Entry Level Race Team (Ages 9-12)

The natural stepping stone from the Husky Snow Stars is the K1 program developed for 11 & 12 year old skiers. Skiers ages 9 & 10 may participate as Entry Level Racers (ELR) based on coaches approval.

The K1/ELR Team focuses on advanced ski development and racing skills with the introduction of competitive skiing in a fun environment. The participants in the K1 program will race in 2-3 races in the season at ski hills in located in the Atlantic provinces.

All race fees, accommodation and travel costs associated with away races are not included in the cost of the program. Racers are required to have a $60.00 K1 ACA Comp Card, which is included in the cost of the program.

The program begins January 3rd, 2009 and runs to the end of March with training on Wednesday nights from 6pm-9pm, Saturday and Sunday 9:00am – 2:30pm. The program is flexible in that skiers may choose their own level of commitment by registering for one or two days. Fees will be adjusted accordingly.

Our K1/ELR Team normally holds one or two 3-day camps over the Christmas break, as well as a March break camp. All camps are offered based on sufficient participation levels.
