Ski Day Success!!!

What a day!  It seemed like today's ski might have been in jeopardy, even just a few days ago, but Dave cut some new areas out, and groomed for us, and we had an amazing experience!  The walk to Westboro Beach was a short 10 min jaunt, and once there, we played some flag belt games, with lots of running and diving in the soft snow.  This got us really warmed up for the lessons.  We got our gear sorted, and then had Jenny and Patrick, from Fresh Air Experience, run us through a series of drills, and activities, aimed at getting us all more comfortable on skiis.
The class was incredible overall.  The level of skill was really even across the board, with a couple who fell more often than others, but with everyone looking like they improved over the course of the trip.  After about 40 min of games on our skiis in the training field, we headed off on a trek down the trail.  Everyone did a great job of making it work for them.  The sky was clear blue, the temperature was perfect, and, as you can see, the students were grinning from ear to ear.  Talk about a magical day!  Check out the photos below!
