STUDENT PATROLLER PROGRAM
2008 Student Seminar
Killington, VT
March 14-17, 2008
Calling all Student Patrollers! Come to Killington Resort in Vermont to enjoy an awesome experience at the 2008 Eastern Division Student Training Seminar. “Great time,” “Can’t wait until next year,” “Made some new friends,” are some of the comments from last year’s seminar at Bretton Woods.
The seminar officially kicks off on Friday, March 14 with a fun day of skiing or riding for those who are able to arrive early. Saturday and Sunday are jam packed with competitions, clinics, training, and fun activities. The weekend concludes with a banquet and awards Sunday night. Those who can stay around enjoy a great day of skiing or riding on Monday.
Super skiing/riding, great food, and talented staff will all combine to make this a weekend to remember. Bring your “stuff” and compete with other students or clinic with the best instructors in the Eastern Division.
Something very special will be happening at this year’s seminar. We will have a demonstration of avalanche dogs at work and a hands-on station with avalanche beacons along with a beacon search competition.
Thanks to a contribution from the Eastern Division Alumni members, we are able to offer this event for the low cost of $295 per person. Included in this price are:
Our accommodations are at the Pinnacle Condominiums, a favorite of Killington guests, with an on-site spa, a 20-person hot tub, a private eight-person hot tub, steam room, sauna, and a game room with arcade games, ping pong, pool, foosball, and television. There is also an exercise room with a treadmill, stairmaster, and two stationary bikes. A shuttle is available to take you from the condos to the ski slopes.
We’re going to one of the biggest resorts in the division….let’s make this the biggest seminar ever. We encourage students at all mountains to participate in this event. Let’s make it as successful as it has been in the past…or even more successful!
