EHS Nordic Skiing

2024-2025 Season 

Early Season :

Getting Ready

Skiing is just around the corner. Craftsbury has a short loop already in place, and Sleepy is hoping to open next week. We will start with drylands for a few days, and get on snow as soon as we can. 

Day Camp

Our traditional day camp will be at Craftsbury, Saturday December 14. The camp focuses on techniques for all and distance for the more advanced skiers. Pack lunch and snacks. Bus leaves at 7:00 and returns around 4:00 (depending on conditions).

On-Snow Training

Our home training base is Sleepy Hollow. We ask every skier to buy a season pass, find the form here. Coaches communicate training information (time and style) through team updates (see below) and sometimes emails when conditions are rapidly changing.
