On the last day of our first Junior Camp we had the chance to visit the REG Camp happening up the road in Craftsbury. We have three current, and two alum GMVS athletes participating in this invitational camp. Part of the camp is designed as a selection for National Development Camps and there is a US Ski Team Coach in attendance. There are three selection “competitions.” In spite of the saying, at REG you actually can “win” the workout!
Practice, practice. |
The first challenge was an agility course that the kids ran through three times for a cumulative time. Hans Halvorsen, bronze medalist at the 2010 Junior Nationals, took the overall victory for boys, beating a talented field.
Earlier this summer, Grald, Sinclair, Bushman and Cirelli! |
During the hill climb GMVS took the two top spots. I believe both David Sinclair ’10 and Mary Kate Cirelli PG ’12 set course records! It was impressive to see them float up the hill!
Look for strong strength performances today from Heidi Halvorsen, Tim Reynolds and the rest of the GMVS Crew.
