This catalogue contains all of the information you need to register any member of your family into the recreation or racing programs offered at the Caledon Ski Club Saturday Feb 28 $40 Sunday March 1 $40 Registration closes Feb. 15, 2015 Our goal is to have the finest Alpine Development Programs in Ontario. In executing this goal, our philosophy is to offer our Members the most enjoyable and effective programs to meet and exceed their needs. We will develop, support and deliver programs that: • Encourage broad-based participation • Encourage personal growth and develop individual potential • Facilitate athlete progress to higher levels of competition www.caledonskiclub.on.ca 51 WELCOME TO THE 2014-2015 SEASON Fantastic terrain, fun and knowledgeable instructors make Caledon Ski Club a great choice for every member of the family. We offer expert training for all ages in Alpine Skiing, Snowboarding, Freestyle and even Telemark! The Alpine Development Program has made some significant changes to our calendar and program offerings this year that we’d like to share with you. As a result of the change to the calendar for the Ontario Public School system we are starting the March Break ski programs on Monday, March 16. This change has had an impact with a few of the governing sport bodies that we work with. Alpine Ontario will have races scheduled for the weekend of Feb 28th and March 1st which has traditionally been the date for the Club Championships. Freestyle Ontario and Association of Ontario Snowboarders will also be running programs during this weekend. Therefore, Caledon like most, will be running our Club Champs on March 7 and 8. Race Programs with teams that travel to away races under AOA sanctions (U12, U14, U16 and U18) will now be a nine week program running from January 3rd to March 1, 2015. The U10, U10 COMBI and Youth House League programs will remain as eight week programs ending on Feb 21 and Feb 22. The Recreation and Snowboard programs will also start on January 3 or January 4 and run for eight weeks ending on February 21 or February 22. What this scheduling allows us to do is create a Festival Weekend of Activities for those kids in the eight week programs which will be held the weekend of February 28 and March 1. We will have events and opportunities for kids to try the many different aspects of the programs that we offer. A lunch voucher will be included for the kids to enjoy a full and fun day for this event. We are looking forward to another competitive season at Caledon Ski Club. Our U10 day and a half program was very successful last season and we will continue to offer this as it is excellent preparation for the U12 circuit. We have expanded our one day programs to make Youth House League and our new U10 Combi program (previously known as Free Race) available on both Saturday and Sunday. The U10 Combi program will include elements of learning park skiing along with an introduction to racing. This comprehensive program allows our young skiers the opportunity to develop their skills across a broader spectrum of skiing and to provide more opportunities for them in the future. Our Adult Race Training programs will be up and running again with an emphasis on advanced skiing and an opportunity to get into gates on a regular basis. We would like to have more Caledon adults join our exciting Adult House League on Sunday afternoons. The team concept is what is most important in AHL, so why not come out and give it a try this season! As introduced in our new website last year, program information and registration is easily accessible with your Member Login. We look forward to seeing you at the Ski Swap on October 19 and then on the snow!

Look Before You Leap • Before getting into freestyle terrain observe all signage and warnings. • Scope around the jumps first, not over them. • Use your first run as a warm up run, and to familiarize yourself with the terrain. • Be aware that the features change constantly due to weather, usage, grooming and time of day. • Do not jump blindly and use a spotter when necessary. Know your landings are clear and clear yourself out of the landing area. Easy Style It • Know your limits and ski/ride within your ability level. • Start small and work your way up. • Inverted aerials not allowed in the Caledon Terrain Park. Respect Gets Respect • From the lift line through the park. • Respect the terrain and others. • One person on a feature at a time. • Wait your turn and call your start. • Always clear the landing area quickly. • Respect all signs and stay off closed terrain and features.
